Quoting from the Mutt manual:
Mutt has a few nice features for handling mailing lists. In order to take
advantage of them, you must specify which addresses belong to mailing lists,
and which mailing lists you are subscribed to. Once you have done this, the
list-reply function will work for all known lists. Additionally, when you send
a message to a subscribed list, mutt will add a Mail-Followup-To header to tell
other users' mail user agents not to send copies of replies to your personal
address. Note that the Mail-Followup-To header is a non-standard extension
which is not supported by all mail user agents. Adding it is not bullet-proof
against receiving personal CCs of list messages. Also note that the generation
of the Mail-Followup-To header is controlled by the followup_to configuration
variable.
