In your reply, reply-to was set to both you and the list. It's pretty 
annoying, and harder than it should be, to keep the discussion on-list 
because if you reply to this and send me a copy as mailman suggests, 
mailman will suppress the duplicate it sees and not send me a copy. 
Then, my reply will, unless I notice and change the address, will only 
go to you and not to the list. It seems to me that's broken behaviour.

Unless I change my preferences at the lists website, and that fixes the 
problem only for me.
