I apologize to all for the mis-information.

Apparently people are picking up the mailing list address from various
unrelated websites. Since it has been this way so long, the only
solution is to remember to include the poster's email address in all
responses (either by the person answering, or someone on the list
noticing the omission). Any other solution would call for list
configuration changes that seem to be impossible.
