You have a “reply to sender” command in your mail client; every client
has that. It seems that is what you used (it might just be named
“reply”). Such replies should not go to anyone else by default.
You *should* also have a “reply to list” command; if you don't, speak
sternly to whomever makes the mail client you're using (“reply to list”
has been around for decades), and until then switch to a better email
client.
When you reply, decide who should receive the response, and choose
“reply to sender” or “reply to list” accordingly.
(You will also have a “reply to all” command. That's almost never
appropriate in a forum like this.)
