It is fairly normal on technical lists not to mung the reply-to headers.
If you use follow-up-to headers you can tell (at least some) mail clients
that you are subscribed to the list and don't want to be included on the
cc header.
If you aren't worried about people trying to reply just to you and sending
to the list, you can set up your mail client to set the reply-to header
to the list when sending to or cc'ing the list (at least with some mail
clients).
