IMHO if they set reply-to, they're *asking* you to CC them, and > there's no reason not to honour that. There is another very good reason to set Reply-to:, e.g. my scenario: I have a single incoming e-mail address in one domain, but most of my outgoing e-mails come from another domain, and therefore, because the outgoing domain does not receive e-mails at all, reply-to ensures that no matter which of the 4 or 5 machines I email from, and no matter which domain they show the e-mail as being from, that any and all replies will come to the one and only incoming domain. While normally I'm using a decent e-mail client that allows forging the From: address to look like my incoming address, sometimes the Reply-To: is the only way to guarantee that it is even possible to get an email to me. Now, if you've got a way to solve these problems without using Reply-To, I'm all ears! Oh, and, By-The-Way, I don't want an e-mail CC of any reply you send to a mailing list, I don't need two copies of your email, and I'm willing to be patient for the mailing list copy to arrive.
