I think you mean "full personalization" which is actually independent
of VERP.

By design. Full personalization puts the recipient in the To: header
and the list in Cc: to facilitate replying to the list (with
reply-all).

If you want to hack Mailman to accommodate this apparently broken MUA,
look at the code in Mailman/Handlers/Cookheaders.py introduced by the
following comments.
# The To field normally contains the list posting address. However
# when messages are fully personalized, that header will get
# overwritten with the address of the recipient. We need to get the
# posting address in one of the recipient headers or they won't be
# able to reply back to the list. It's possible the posting address
# was munged into the Reply-To header, but if not, we'll add it to a
# Cc header. BAW: should we force it into a Reply-To header in the
# above code?
# Also skip Cc if this is an anonymous list as list posting address
# is already in From and Reply-To in this case.
