Shouldn't it be the other way around ? Most lists I either belong or have
belonged to work the opposite way. Reply always sends to the list and Reply
All goes to the list and OP.

the subscriber's MUA offers reply based on the List-Post: header as you
stated) would it cause any problems to make it standard procedure to set
