This list is set up correctly.  It is the lists which set reply-to to
be 'reply to all' which are broken.  You only need to _once_ send a
reply-only-to-the-sender message saying something which should not be
said publically, and have the list redirect your private mail to
the whole list, to understand why convenience to people who use
mailers that make sending reply-all difficult is not the top priority.
