That's got it completely backwards. For a mailing list the "Sender" is the list address, "From" is the person who actually wrote the message[1]. And if "Reply-to" munging must be done, then common (bad) practice is to set it to the list address. I wouldn't take any pains to accommodate such a badly broken mail provider, especially on a technical list like this where people understand the problem. I run a number of mailing lists, and on the non-technical lists I do mung "Reply-to" to the list address because the subscribers to those lists expect that behaviour. My preference is to mung "Reply-to" only when the message author has not explicitly set it, respecting the author's intent. As far as I know, only Listserv can do this. Sadly, neither Mailman nor Mercury Mail have that degree of finesse.

If replies seem patchy, we've just had a bunch of people - mostly Yahoo and Rogers users - auto-kicked from the list due to DMARC. This is an ongoing pain for list admins. The reason given by Yahoo is this:

Yeah, they're advising Reply-To mungeing as an industry standard. Joy!
