I have no specific problem with mailman.

Two words: User education. And set the "reply-to header" setting appropriately (i.e. do *not* set reply-to to the list), if you usually want direct replies to poster. Oh I read you have already done that. Then... User education (they should use the reply to sender function, not group reply or list reply in their MUA if they want their replies to be private). If they aren't supposed at all to send to the list, deny them the right to do so (possible on the web interface).

[Mailman-Users] "bounce" message from misconfigured mail host(s) [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Returned mail: User unknown]
Hello! I'm getting "bounces" like this from a misconfigured site which bounces to the header From instead of the envelope from. Perhaps that recipient should just be removed from the list? The "bounce" has envelope from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (should be empty!) header from [EMAIL PROTECTED] and stems from [193.74.71.21] (helo=xizor.is.scarlet.be) (helo matches the reverse-mapping of the IP, double reverse check matches) Its received lines seem to be echoed from the original mail (bad!). The upmost received lines from the original mail are: Received: from (smtp-vbr10.xs4all.nl [194.109.24.30]) by fundy.is.scarlet.be with ESMTP id j9NJNaoW011305 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sun, 23 Oct 2005 21:23:36 +0200 Received: from bag.python.org (bag.python.org [194.109.207.14]) by smtp-vbr10.xs4all.nl (8.13.3/8.13.3) with ESMTP id j9NJNV5u040983 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sun, 23 Oct 2005 21:23:36 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Received: from bag.python.org (bag [127.0.0.1]) by bag.python.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E0E2B1E411D for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sun, 23 Oct 2005 21:23:14 +0200 (CEST) So something at or after smtp-vbr10.xs4all.nl or fundy.is.scarlet.be is heavily misconfigured. Please fix this (CC is set to people who could be responsible): DSNs should have an empty (null) envelope sender and should be sent *only* to the envelope sender of the original message, the header (From/Reply-To) should never be evaluated for creating DSNs/bounces.

E.g. with mutt, I can register the mailing lists I'm on (the To address where submissions to the list go), and if I ask mutt to do a list reply, it takes all known list addresses from To and CC as target for the reply.
