When replying to some posts, in addition to the address for the list, you also have the address of the original sender of the message as well in the reply to field. Personally, I think this is a from header misconfiguration on the part of whoever posted the message to which you're replying. Incidently, if you chose to reply to just that message, and not the entire list in this scenario, you'll get the list address in the reply to field, instead of the original sender's address. So, no, in this case, the message isn't just going to speech.braille.uwo.ca. The solution here is obvious, remove the original sender's address from the reply to field, just leaving the list address. I personally didn't bother doing that, since I don't see a big issue with the sender getting my message twice, through the list, as well as directly. However, now that I know this issue exists, I'll be taking care to check the reply to field when sending a reply to a post from this list, as well as other mailman lists I guess, since I imagine the problem isn't unique to this list.
