First, do a web search on "reply-to considered harmful".  Once you've
read, understood, and thought about that information, read the
documentation for your email client and discover features it has which
may be called a 'group reply' or a 'list reply'. Also discover the
'mail-followup-to' header and find out whether your email client
supports that.

When you've digested all that information, if you /still/ think that
reply-to is correct on mailing lists, ask again ;)
