It's probably worth mentioning... I'm asking about this due to ongoing DMARC discussions on various other mailing lists; inserting a reply-to header makes mail clients almost universally do the wrong thing with group-reply functionality, it seems. It seems likely that doing this is about to become a lot more popular, and mail clients that don't deal with this well are going to make a lot of people frustrated. Granted, Mutt's list-reply functionality mostly makes this uninteresting; however there are often times when I want to reply to BOTH the sender AND the list (e.g. if the mailing list is known to be kind of slow, and the poster is looking for a fast answer; or if the sender requests direct replies, etc.), and therefore don't use it. -- Derek D.
