Is it possible to change the reply-to in mailman to be the list, and not the person who replied?
Every good MUA has a possibility for replying to the list. Also read http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html
The preceding link is the opinion of one guy, and is no discussion ender. He makes up an ugly sounding characterization "munge", and I counter with the better sounding characterization "discussionize".
which happens currently
A mailing list is meant to produce a whole greater than the sum of the parts, not a bunch of people whispering privately in each others' ear, and therefore the default should go back to the mailing list. I'm soooo tired of seeing Chip Rosenthal's tired rant about reply-to redirection quoted as if it's something more than one guy's opinion.
not only one guy, you get on many lists a complaint for "reply all", reply private and so on - to quote another owner of a list about mailserver software "fix your mailclient"
For me, personally, the point is moot, because from my Claws-Mail on Debian Wheezy Linux, both Reply to List and Reply send it back to the list, and I must use Reply to Sender to send to the sender, which is the exact behavior I find best for a mailing list.
The original poster (OP) was using MS Outlook. Does anyone know how to "reply to list" in Outlook? If not, does Thunderbird have a "reply to list"? If so, the OP could switch to Thunderbird.
surely - and that's why i hate "reply all" because depending on which copy is faster i get the button enabled or not
Also the [Dovecot] on the subject would be handy.
Nope, I disagree. If you need to filter, there is a header for this: List-Id: Dovecot Mailing List
I've been very pleased with the results ever since I started filtering mailing lists by List-Id instead of a marker in the subject line. It keeps everything going to the right mailboxes, even when crossposts are involved. I use the very versatile procmail for filtering; I'm not sure the OP's MS Outlook can do that. But, of course, Outlook has much more serious issues than any of this: I'd recommend the OP use a different mail client, for the security of his computer
we are on a *mailserver list* and the server supports sieve
