Didn't copied. But nevermind, it was all messy enough before upgrading.
Total uninstall and a manual cleanup of disk and registry, then reinstall.
It looks like it working as it should now.

Then set your reply-address to the list, if you don't want to receive private
replies.
I only add maillist address to the list of recipients, and only if it not set
already.
The rest is handled by mail rules as described in relevant RFC's.
