Summary: reply_goes_to_list allow poster+list option

Initial Comment:
Right now, the reply_goes_to_list option allows (a)
poster, (b), list, and (c) explicit.  How about (d)
poster AND list?  That is, insert/override a reply-to:
header containing both the list name, and the original
reply-to (if present, else From: address).  For extra
credit, omit the original poster if they are a list member.

This would be very useful for a number of lists I
maintain, where 90% of the traffic is among the list
members (hence having a simple reply go to the list),
yet a few messages come in from the outside world
(hence including the original poster's address).

I'm using mailman 2.1.4 on GNU/Linux.

Thanks,
karl at freefriends.org

I don't think this is possible.  "Reply-to:" goes back to one address, not 
two.  The action of having multiple "Reply-to:" headers is also undefined, 
and some clients may work the way you want, while others may work in 
ways you do not.

Pretty much everything to do with "Reply-to:" is really a client problem, 
and needs to be solved there.  See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/
faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.048.htp> for details.
