Yup, I "noted" this new behavior of mailman on certain mailing lists
that I follow.

I started to receive an incredible number of duplicates because my
Reply-To: is set whenever it's identical to From: or not (when I'm
posting from different servers my From: is of course different, but that
doesn't mean I want "two" copies: If I'm able to post on a mailing list,
I'm receiving already). So people when press the reply-to button sends
an email to both the mailing list and me (again). [still hoping to
gnu.software.arch to come].

I didn't express an option on reply-to munging, but.. IMHO, it's just
sucks, in any salsa. Improve software instead of fixing services.

There's no excuses:

You are a unix user, you have the source, YOU HAVE THE POWER of
improving YOUR software.

Some years ago you MAY had an excuse (MAY... you would still be able to
write your OWN software), but now...
