Currently, I still read my pending folder every couple of weeks, and I always 
find one or two legit emails.  If TMDA would send to the Reply-To address, I 
think that would solve all of my problems, and I would never read my pending 
folder again.

Sending to the Reply-To makes sense.  A person might be sending mail from a 
different machine or location than he wants your response.  If he is using a 
reply-to, then it makes the most sense that TMDA also use it.  I would even 
argue that sending to the Reply-To is all that is needed if it is present.  
No need to send to the From address, since he doesn't want mail there.

I realize that it is easy to simply place blame on the sender for using 
something so silly, but that won't solve the problem.  The other users will 
not change, so I have to be the one to change.

I be given a hint about where to hack in order to make it work as I'd like?
