It should be obvious that replies to mails sent to spi-announce should
hardly ever go to spi-announce. You do understand the purpose of an
announcements list ? It should have announcements, not discussions.

I agree that people posting to -announce should usually set Reply-To.

> 2. Having the mailing list set Reply-To to where they should go
> 3. Indicating where replies should go in the list description

Neither of these is practical, because where the reply should go will
depend on what the announcement was and what the reply is.
