Hi:
Im using mailman for one of our mailing lists, but I have a hard time configuring it. If someone replies to the a mail that’s sent to the mailing list, it goes to everybody on the list, as if I sent a mail to the list. How can I stop that? I tried everything, but no luck!
Thanks in Advance Sesiri

On the list's general options page you want
first_strip_reply_to = No reply_goes_to_list = Poster
Beyond that, it is up to the person doing the replying and his/her MUA.
Normally, a 'reply-all' (as I'm doing here) will go to the original poster and the list because the list is a recipient of the original post, and a 'reply' will go to the poster only.

If the list is supposed to not allow anyone but you to post to it, then you'll want to have a look at the FAQ. Search for announce or one-way.
In particular, see these entries:
3.11. How do I create a newsletter/announcement/one-way list? 3.34. How do I spoof-proof my one-way (announcements or newsletter) list?
