at least once a week, I even get mislead mails from one of our admins, 
who I think of being technically very experienced. The admin lists 
doesn't have reply-to mangling, and lots of content is missing on the 
list, because people always reply to me directly. Especially our admins 
have been bugging me to turn on reply-to-mangling on that list... weird 
world. :-)

I have seen users of mutt, Google Mail and a few other mail clients 
complaining.

My take would be to use one of the more prominent lists to try out the 
results - preferably users@, or in case we want to exclude that list, 
something like discuss@ could be a good starter.

In case pure chaos arises, we need to rethink the strategy, in case 
things work out well, we might adapt that for other lists.

What do you think?
