This is easy enough to change. With some expert help from this list, I
put the following into my configuration file:

# If both Reply-to and List-Post exist, copy original Reply-To
# If List-Post exists, generate Reply-To from it
headers_add     = ${if match {$header_list-post:} {\<mailto:(.*)\>} \
                 {${if def:header_reply-to: \
                 {X-Orig-reply-to: $header_reply-to:\nReply-To: <$1>} \
                 {Reply-To: <$1>} }} \
                 {} }



# If both Reply-to and List-Post exist, remove original Reply-To
headers_remove = ${if and { \
                 {def:header_reply-to:} {def:header_list-post:}\
                 } {reply-to} fail }


This was the last item in my Routers section.
