When you ask M$ Outlook to reply a mesage in the lists it replays to the original sender nor the list itself. That shouldn't be that way, should?

Thanks ;)

There are *lots* of things about M$ Outlook which shouldn't be that way.

There are two possible outcomes:

 If the result confirms the hypothesis, then you've made a measurement.
 If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery.

This also happens with Mozilla 1.5 on Debian/Sarge.

AFAIK, if "Reply-To" does not exist, it uses the sender's address always.

Not necessarily - if you use a *decent* mailer (like mutt on Linux) it finds the
List-Post: <mailto:[email protected]>
header and uses that to send your mail if you type "L" (list reply), while a "R" (reply) goes to the sender of the mail you are replying to. "U" unsubscribes me, and other nice features. Sadly only a few mailers use the List-* headers.
