right idea, wrong implementation.

one thing to be considered - your adding of reply-to to yourself is also
a problem. that means that people w/o a reply-to-list like myself, will
end up answering to you rather than the list by mistake. same when you
send a message in CC: to several, and one of them answers to the post,
the answer only goes to you and not the rest. think about it.

in General, I believe reply-to is a very misunderstood and misused
header. it should be set only on very specific and remote occasions, but
most MUAs let you only set it for all time or not at all, which makes it
rather useless.
