Does the list header have a "* Reply-to=" keyword?  If not the default
is "list,respect" which says if the sender has not got a "Reply-to:"
heaser, generate a Reply-to: the list, but respect one from the sender
if present.  I suspect this one poster is the only one with a Reply-to:
header.

You can override the default action with:

     * Reply-to= list,ignore

in your header which says to ignore the supplied one.

Here is a bit from the listowner's manual:

+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| Reply-To= List|Sender|Both|None|net-address,[Respect|Ignore] |
+--------------------------------------------------------------+

Indicates whether the "Reply-to:" tag supplied by the sender of the mail
file is to be preserved or discarded (if present), and, if discarded or
omitted, what should be placed in the new "Reply- to:" generated by the
server. The default value is "Reply-To= List,Respect".

Note that some mailing systems are unable to process a "Reply-To:" field
with multiple addresses correctly and may therefore disregard the Reply-to=
Both option and treat it as Reply-to= List.

The two parameters are specified as follows:

First parameter:
    List        Replies are directed to the list address.
    Sender      Replies are directed to the original sender.
    Both        Reply to both the original sender and to the list
                (see note regarding this above)
    None        No Reply-to: header is generated unless ",Respect"
                is specified and a Reply-to: header is present in
                the original posting, in which case replies are
                directed to wherever the Reply-To: tag points.
   net-address  Replies are directed to the specified internet
                address

Second parameter:
    Respect     The original "Reply-to:" tag on the posting, if any,
                is kept. If no valid Reply-To: tag exists in the
                posting, the value defined in the first parameter of
                this keyword is used.
    Ignore      The original "Reply-to:" tag on the posting, if any,
                is ignored and discarded, and the value defined in
                the first parameter of this keyword is used instead.
                If Reply-To= None,Ignore, then a Reply-to: tag will
                never be generated by LISTSERV.
