What are your list headers?  If I haven't mentally twisted my
neurons looking at your puzzle, I think the following would work:

LIST-A:
        Reply-To= List,Ignore
LIST-B:
        Reply-To= List,Respect

Of course, the latter would allow posters to LIST-B to set the
Reply-To to point to themselves, while the former would forbid
posters to LIST-A from doing so (or, to be more precise, would
silently ignore their attempts to do so).
