Why do you want to reply to email addressed to the list as the list rather than as you. That is not the way lists are normally used (e.g. I am replying to mail sent to this list as myself, not as the list).
Yup. But he explained this. The list is the public face of a committee, and at least some outgoing mail should appear to be from the committee.
Whether that's a good idea or not, well, mostly I'd say "not a great idea". But that's for him to decide.
