Of course, and I didn't realize the mail to news gateway was broken and 
didn't prevent that. All the ones I've used (and written) have preserved 
the message-id and the news server will reject the message if that's 
done, and the news to mail gateway should pass on any message with the 
list address in the headers (rather than bcc).

If I "reply" it goes to the nntp server only, and I have definitely had 
problems with that getting back to the list. There seem to be filtering 
rules or something.

I'll just set the group 'noreply=true' and stop the problem, at least on 
my usual machine.
