Reply to all will reply to the Reply-To + To + Cc list in the MUAs I looked
at.
In other words, a poster can't stop a reply to all from going to the list by
setting a weird value in the Reply-To header.
So, if I post this:
From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Reply to all will send mail to:
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Make sure you also update the comment in Defaults.py then
