I too am on several mailing lists - but by far prefer that the
"reply" goes to the sender, not the list. Trying to type out a
person's email address (if you have no copy and paste facility)
can be time consuming, and you invariably get it wrong; whereas
many mailers have some sort of "alias" set up, where you can assign
an address to an alias - in my case, I type "ridecamp" and the mailer
automatically puts in the address for me.

Try poking around in your mailer to see if you can see some sort
of alias/address book/nick name set up, and then you can set up
an instant reply word for any mailing list you're on.
