Like what?

If it's that important to you, then you should be lobbying for the reply-to
for messages delivered via the list to be set to the list address.  To do as
you suggest, given the current state of things, I need to do a reply-all to
get the blu address in the CC field, then manually edit the header to make the
CC into a TO.

Sorry, but I don't futz with headers unless there's a good reason to.  If you
can make it so reply-all does what you prefer (ie by setting the reply-to
address for the list), than fine.  Otherwise, I think you're fighting a losing
battle to expect people to jump through extra hoops just for you (even though
I did jump through that hoop this one time).
