Hint: setting Reply-To does _not_ let you redirect answers reliably.
Reply to all with reply to the list and the original sender regardless of
what Reply-To is set to.

Your best bet  if you want to prevent  replies from going to the  list is to
send your mail to "listname-noreply at your.domain.tld" (which is redirected to
/dev/null) and Bcc your post to the actual listname

At work, I have exim rewrite all at domain.tld into
dont-send-mail-to-all at domain.tld in the header to.
That way if people reply to all, the mail doesn't go to all (which is
moderated anyway)
