I really should stop using Gmail's web interface

has a "reply to list" feature and defaults to replying to the list for
messages from the list (it would presumably need explicit filters to
detect messages from some lists because not all lists use the
List-Post header). It's annoying when I try to reply to the list and
instead end up replying to only the poster (I know about the problems
with Reply-To munging; I'm not sure why it isn't more common for MUAs
to have a "reply to list" feature to better deal with lists that don't
munge Reply-To).
I have to go through a bunch of finagling to reply to some lists,
including this one, via Alpine. At least if I select "reply all", I can
just cut-and-paste the addresses. I think it's configurable in the list
manager daemon.
I do seem to remember it being a bigger pain with Google mailing lists.
