First of all, to pick a nit - this is a mailing list, not a "board".
As for which address appears when you hit reply, the list has been
configured to reply to the sender by default. I assume this was done to cut
down on personal replies being sent to the list by mistake - i.e. you have
to stop and think for a second if you want to reply to the list as a whole.
I think it's a good idea myself, helps cut down on the useless posts that
make other mailing lists such a pain to read.
Anyway, if you don't feel like typing the list address everytime you want
to send a public reply, hit the "Reply All" button instead (assuming your
mail program has one). It'll bring up both the list address and the sender
address as recipients. Just try and remember to delete the sender address,
otherwise they'll get two copies of the message (one direct, one via the list).
