When I hit "reply" I get both the originator's email and the lists email in
my 'to' field. I can simply delete the list when I want to only reply to the
originator.

You can blame me for the change to the way the From: header is handled.
The purpose of this change is to try to solve the mass bounce problem.
Actually, you should really blame the folks responsible for DKIM, SPF, ADSP, and the like.
The designs of those systems, which purport to reduce spam, pretty much completely fail
to consider the concept and operation of mailing lists.
It may be possible to tune the content of the Reply-To field. I'll have a look.
