I was wondering that, too. If so, it would seem that if ezmlm got a
message from an unsubscribed user, it could add that user into the
Reply-To field, and a normal reply would then go to the list and the
unsubscribed user. It apparently already knows the user is unsubscribed
(or could, if it doesn't) so subscribed users wouldn't get copies to
their personal accounts, but the unsubscribed posters would. Sounds like
a pretty neat solution to most of the problem.

Michelle, I realize that this is not a complete or ideal solution, but
I'm sure you realize that by far the majority of users who show up as
unsubscribed do not use any other mechanism to receive replies, and must
currently be explicitly copied on messages to see responses. Those of us
who try to do that are aware that you are in a special category, and
disregard the normal process in your case. If the Reply-To header were
modified as described, I'd just delete your address before replying,
which would be far less cumbersome than copying and pasting the address
of each typical unsubscribed user, as must be done now. Sometimes I
forget to do it, and many other responders don't know to copy them or
don't choose to do it, and these responses are missed by the OP unless
forwarded by another user..But the whole issue for you comes about
because you have a very badly filtered account that you use for sending
messages to this list, without subscribing that account.
Many other users also use newsreaders or other mechanisms to follow the
discussions here, but they seem to have no similar problem. Perhaps some
of them can describe what they do to avoid it. One solution would seem
to be to subscribe the account, then set up a filter for messages coming
from the list (easy to do in any decent e-mail client). You could set it
first to shunt them to a dedicated inbox, and as soon as the
subscription was confirmed, you could have your filter auto-discard all
the messages. I'm sure there are other ways as well. The moderators
would probably appreciate your subscription, also, though they've
probably already accommodated you by modifying their normal process,
too, so that your messages don't get unnecessarily delayed.
