Harmful" (http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html).
As an experiment, I have turned on Reply-To munging. Reply-To now
points back to the mailing list (assuming I did it right).
I agree that the default Reply-To back to the original author is
very annoying. 99% of the time you want to reply back to the
list. On those rare occasions when you want to reply to just
the author, it isn't too much trouble to type in an email address.
If, on the other hand, we start running into problems with
vacation replies and other kinds of autoresponder, I'll go
back to the non-munged Reply-To.
