Hi,
I'm running mailman 2.1.11 (debian Stable), and even if I set "reply_goes_to_list" to the value "poster" when I reply the mail gets to the list. This might be because I have list@mydomain.com redirected to list.mydomain.com@lists.provider.com, but If I post directly to list.mydomain.com@lists.provider.com the problem is the same.
Maybe the header are false? which header is used for the poster value? is this a bug in my version (I did not found a bug report concerning this issue in Debian BTS)
Thanks for help Gerard

Is your list anonymous? If so, replies will always go to the list.
"reply_goes_to_list = Poster" merely tells Mailman to not add any Reply-To: header to the delivered posts so replies should go to the From: address or to the poster's original Reply-To: if any.

Hi,
thanks for the reply
anonymous_list is set to "No" The From is the one of the original poster, and there is no Reply-To
Do you have another idea?

If the From: header has the original poster's address and there is no Reply-To:, a simple "reply" should go only to the original poster. If this is not the case, the MUA doing the replying is behaving strangely.

you are absolutly right, the MUA (kmail debian testing) was not behaving like the webmail and like other MUA. I will look at why kmail behave like this.
Thanks for your help Gerard
