        The mailing list software may be wonderful, but it does not
 write emails. So the mail orginated from *ME*, not smartlist. So,
 yes, reply should reply to the originator, and I can set Reply-to to
 specify where reply-to-originator may be sent (as opposed to
 where ever this hotel may e routing my mails from). 

        Please note the Reply-to set on this email.  I would be very
 annoyed if the list software scribbled all over my carefully crafted
 header.

        Fair enough. Then it is up to you to be able to interact with
 the rest of the world.  Choice often comes with a price.

        Except Replying to list mail, if I am to understand you correctly.
