I'm pretty sure he didn't mean to do that. He probably hit reply,
thinking it would reply to the person who posted. The List software
circumvents the reply function by adding a "Reply-To:" header. Thus,
normal replies to the original poster are redirected by the List
software to go to the entire List. To reply to the original poster, you
have to manual address it to him, and don't use the reply key.
