Hi, all. I am trying to set up a Mailman list, and I've encountered a problem. I'm new to this, and I could really use some help.
I want replies to go to the individual poster, but they're going to the list instead. I have first_strip_reply_to set to No and reply_goes_to_list set to Poster. I've tried posting an original message from two different email clients (Thunderbird and Roundcube), and I've also tried replying to those message using the same two clients. You can an example below. Do you have any idea what I'm missing?
Thank you. Eli

Those are the setting's you want.

The message you show below looks like the original post sent from Thunderbird as received from the list. It contains no References: or In-Reply-To: headers so it is not a reply. Further, it contains no Reply-To: header which is expected.
Normally, in Thunderbird, if you 'Reply' to this message the reply should go to the From: address, if you 'Reply All' the reply should go to the From: and To: addresses, and if you 'Reply List', the reply should go to the List-Post: address which is what you want.
However, Thunderbird has a quirk in that it drops your own address from replies. I.e., in this case the From: is your own address and Thunderbird won't include that address as a recipient of the reply, so 'Reply All' goes only to the list and 'Reply' would go to just you, but you are dropped leaving no recipient so Thunderbird takes the To: as the recipient.
This is a Thunderbird thing (maybe Roundcube too, I don't know). If you have a different identity in Thunderbird and use that or if you are a different Thunderbird user or if the From: is not you, reply will go to the From: address.
