Hallo CBFalconer,
What is a Reply-To: good for if the mailinglist would overwrite it?
The purpose of setting the reply-to on delivery from the list is so that replies go to the list, and not just to the originator.
FWIW, that is exactly what I dislike, but this is just my private opinion.
I am hosting some lists too and the consensus on the list was to use the Reply-To: to point back to the list, but I dislike this feature, and I dislike democratic decisions.
The most mafor lists I'm reading like gcc, perl5-porters, cygwin and other high volume lists don't set a Reply-To:, so why should gpc do it?
