Cool. Just setup mailer-daemon@listeron.com and root@listeron.com. Unfortunately postmaster and abuse were already taken.

How do replies work with group email setups like this?

Say I email the group address. If someone replies to me, how do they copy the rest of the group in without sending their message to me twice?

Do I need to train everyone to hit reply, delete my email address, and then use the group email address instead? It feels like this setup would carry more friction than simply hitting 'reply all' to the original sender of a regular email with a long list of addresses, especially among non-technical friends.

Or do you modify the headers of all mail sent to the group address to change the reply-to address to the group address?

Listeron will modify the reply-to header of mails before forwarding them on. So you just reply to a message and it goes to the list. The from header is left alone so you can still see who each message is from.
