The real reason in the pgsql-* lists is not for the non-subscribed

The canonical way to respond to mail lists has always been a 'reply-all'
since originally they didn't modify the reply-to: header and enough
still don't that it would be a problem to keep track. But new mail list
users often complain about getting extra copies in their 'personal' mail
due to the CC: list that is added, or they use 'reply' on a list that
doesn't force responses to the list and they get lost or accidentally
become private conversions so the rest of the list doesn't get to see
the solution.
Two things on the respect:
1) You don't really need reply-to headers. If your client is smart
enough it should have a *reply to list* option which would use the
*List-post* header.
2) Mailman has a option so that if a mail is replied to you and CC to
the list, you won't get a copy from the mailling list. Only the mail
that was directly sent to you.
