I think this is the crux of the problem --- if I subscribed to multiple
email lists, and some have "rely" going to the list and some have
"reply" going to the author, I would have to think about the right reply
option every time I send email.

Fortunately, every email list I subscribe to and manage behaves like the
Postgres lists.
