Use $MAILDIR here?

  ADDRESSFILE=$MAILDIR/listreply

I like it!  Much more efficient than listing all of the addresses
out.

But there is some room for false hits.  Wouldn't the -x option to grep
be appropriate there?  And it probably should be quiet too.  And
probably you don't want to use regular expressions (but maybe you do).

Here is the key for the list:

 -F   fgrep functionality, no REs so '.' matches a literal '.'.
 -q   quiet, no output, just the return code
 -x   exact match on the entire line
 -i   ignore case
