Usually when I'm sending messages to mailing lists, I set the Reply-To header to the mailing list address (as I've done with this message).
How do people's mail clients respond to this? When you draft a reply, does it automatically make to To: main@lists...? Or does it make it CC?
Mine (Alpine 2.00) asks me a series of questions to work out what I want to do, the possible outcomes being the two you suggest, or just replying to you without involving main@lists. But I suspect there's some configuration option that could get it to make up its own mind without asking me.
