Yes, I am using Outlook 2010, version 14.0.7162.5000

Do you know whether the problem is fixed in Outlook 2013?

Are you using Outlook 2010 by any chance? I investigated it shortly after the move to the new mailing list and it seemed everyone having trouble was using more-or-less the same version.

Here's the information I gave Tanya at the time:

Unfortunately, we didn't find a fix.

Just in case this hasn't come up enough/needs to be bumped, this seems like a significant quality-of-life issue for some community members. Presumably happened when the mailing lists switched over to llvm.org<http://llvm.org>

I persistently have this problem with Outlook.  I don't know whether other mail clients are affected but I've seen other people mention it on one or another of our lists.  I am clueless about mail headers.  Pretty sure I have alerted the list manager(s) but can do so again.

Let me point out that the way the lists are currently set up, many
mail clients won't include the list address in a "reply all".
This is an ongoing problem that will trip up every newcomer, and
many of us who aren't.

Really? I've not seen many replies going to me and not the mailing list, only a handful - I'd expect this to be more pervasive if it was a software problem, no?

Do you know what the specific problem is with the headers in the email and/or which mail clients have problems with this?

(probably worth emailing Tanya and/or filing a bug)
