Mailing list: Change the reply too ?

Hi all,

 I don't know if it does the same from everyone, but when I use the
reply function of my mail agent, it sets the recipient to the user who
sent the message, and not the mailing list.

So it's quite annoying cause I have to change the recipient each time
I reply to someone on the list.

Can the list admins fix this issue ?

Cheers !

J.

The list software allways adds a "Reply-To" header indicating that replies 
should be sent to the list.  It does *not* remove any existing Reply-To 
headers that the orriginal sender may have included -- it does this 
because it trusts that the orriginal sender had a reason for putting it 
there (ie: when someone off list, like the apachecon coordinators, sends 
an announcement and the moderators let it through)

It's mail client dependant as to what to do when you reply to a message 
like that -- yours apparently just picks one (and sometimes it's not the 
list) most either reply to both, or ask the user "do you want to reply to 
all"

It works with your messages. It might depends on mail agents.

All my replies go to the list.

 From your message, the header says:

  Reply-To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org
