I think the main point I see above is that the behaviour of the new list is
different from the old one. So, I just switched on Reply-To header munging and
the "Reply" button should send the message back to the list just as it was set
up on nashi.altmuehlnet.de. I suppose it doesn't make a difference with email
clients more intelligent then Outlook as they will recognize the list address
and handle it correctly in any case.

Inevitably there will be some more setup kinks to work out, which is why we're
not turning the old list off until the new one is running smoothly.

Alex.
