How do I reply to the list if the reply-to field isn't set? I vote for not 
changing it. I too belong to a lot of lists and yes there is traffic that 
really shouldn't be posted to the lists. I prefer that than to lose traffic 
that should have come to the list but didn't, or to have a CC from somebody 
when I'm already on the list and therefore get the message twice. 
(Something that really used to bug me about 6 years ago before reply-to 
headers were a standard thing on mailing list setups)

I didn't read the url because I'm late for work, but I will when I get home 
tonight.
