Right question, wrong answer ;-)

ACK NOREPRO is closing the barn door after the cow has escaped.  I believe
the appropriate answer would be to update the list definition keyword to be:

* REPLY-TO: SENDER,RESPECT

That way, those users who REPLY (via mail system that understands what
REPLY means) would be generating a response back to the originator of the
posting, and not to the list itself.  The originiator could over-ride that
by providing an explicit REPLY-TO: in the original posting.
