If the author subscribed to this list they would be aware that the main point of mailing from a different address is a mute issue and does not apply to this list as well as many others. If an email is not sent from the subscribed email it won't go through, thus negating this reason for a reply-to different from the author.

As for the second point about sending to the wrong address, I often send out to the author on other lists by accident. But if I am writing something that sensitive that it belongs off list I start a new mail. Replying to a list post with a private message containing sensitive data isn't to bright anyway.

Sounds like someone is looking for someone/something to blame.

As for the no path home to the author, isn't such a bad thing on some list.

Subject: [OT] Modifying Reply-To header in list messages



Hi all,
   What people here think about this article.

http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html

   The Apache lists modifies reply-to field and put in the list
address. Is this acceptable ?
