Sometimes the person responding does a reply all - so it will go directly back to the one person, and also the list, but the message to the list may be in moderation. I would suspect that is one way Owen would see and respond. (Note, my reply all here goes directly to you and cc’s the list.)

I will have to look into the Discourse mirror, because it shouldn’t hit there before it clears the queue in mailman. Also, I’m 95% certain you can’t respond to the list from Discourse - it is a one way mirror. But that is probably now something on my list to confirm and make sure I’ve got the logistics figured out.
