This kind of comment should result in a temporary moderation bit, IMHO.
It has been discussed in entirety before, is completely unproductive,
and has a tendency to waste time. And that's all beside you (Randal)
having stated your position on this probably about half a dozen times
before.

Mutt has a reply-to-author that bypasses reply-to munging. Mutt also has
a reply-to-list that bypasses reply-to author so both cases are covered
directly in at least one MUA. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS MOANING.

The London.pm list is reply-to-list, and that's that. Please just get
over it and work with it locally. This should be in the FAQ; happy to
update, who does the new svn authz/site pumpking?

Indeed.
