What is the setting for first_strip_reply_to? This should be Yes (or
1). If it is set to No, the explicit reply to will be added to the
incoming Reply-To: instead of replacing it.

I know the message you received directly doesn't show a Reply-To:, but
th list message has an X-Mailman-Approved-At: header indicating it
went through an approval process. Maybe a Reply-To: got added there.

In any case, make sure that first_strip_reply_to is Yes, and if it
wasn't, I think that will fix the problem.
