I'm just being lazy, I don't like to do that every time I send an email
to the list.

I am thinking of the From address, so I am being presumptive that the
Reply-To header and the From header are the same.  For me it certainly
is.  The only time I have ever modded my reply to header is to set it to
the mailing list for those lists that I am on that don't munge the reply
to.  In the case of this list, I view full headers and grab
spam at hutnick.com.  I'm glad to know that you think so highly of my
response :)


In the end it seems to be a matter of personal preference.  I kind of
like letting the mailman software allow the individual to choose munge
or not.
