Hi Pat,
This is a munging list, which changes the from address to pass DMARC.
The original From address gets moved to Reply-To in this common setup.
Unfortunately, not all MUAs respect Reply-To. The convention on munging
lists is Reply-List, and correspondents are expected to join.
Some organizations, notably kernel.org, operate their lists in
non-munging mode, and expect participants to both whitelist their server
and use Reply-All. Correspondents do not have to join to participate.
The trade-off is spam control versus participant convenience.
HTH,
Phil
