This is mostly a thing the mail client should take care of. You seem to
be using thunderbird, which may be doing something stupid. Usually using
'reply to list' should be enough. I don't know thunderbird, it might
have issues displaying replies correctly as well. Most mails you wrote
were displayed correctly for me, but I know that my client 'sup' has
issues when the reply header info is gone and the list ends up in the
cc-field, something some clients seem to do.

Point is, it's a client thing. There might be settings to make it behave
more or less correctly. There might be a 'reply to list' button you
should use.
