Right, that's the way I have it set up right now.

yep ... headaches ...

So thanks a lot for clarifying. There's only one issue left I'm seeing 
right now. Mailman does not rewrite the Newsgroups: header. Thus mua's
like Thunderbird which also talk NNTP offer to reply to the newsgroup
instead of to the list. Arguably this might be called a bug in
thunderbird, but I think it would be reasonable if mailman would change
"Newsgroups:" to "X-Newsgroups:" to avoid these kinds of pitfalls.

Cheers,
