Only if the replyer sends the reply to both you and the list,
which I don't, so you shouldn't get this one more than once.
Some other listservers have the bad idea of putting
the list address in the Reply-To field, which
causes bounced mail to get back on the list resulting
in nasty loops.

The solution to this is to ask people to send mail _only_ to
one list or person at a time, so the TO field is always correct.
(or at least include the list in the TO field instead of CC)

NO! It is wrong to munge headers if it is not absolutely necessary.
You could just sort your mail from this list by the subject
instead... It always includes the text: [SuSE Linux] which
I doubt you'll find on any other lists...

Unconditional agreement on this point. ;-)
