Reply to list pulls the list address from email headers, this way you don't end up with 2 other people being emailed as well such as in this email.

You mentioned before about these emails not being very big, but that isn't the problem, it's the volume of emails and spam filters needing to scan each one, and if they go to the same person twice then it gets filtered twice and filtering can be very CPU intensive depending how complex it is.
