I think this is a misunderstanding on your part.
When I send email to the mailing list,
I assume the list is added by default to the Reply-To header.

But when I sent the same post to the gmane newsgroup
this would not have appeared.
The full headers in that case (from KNode's Sent-mail) are:
Content-Type:   text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"

I don't think there is anything there pointing to a mailing list.
