Mailman always sets Reply-to to something. I like the Debian list approach: don't set it at all and set other headers which tell clients how to do list replies properly. I realise this doesn't always work and there are enough braindead mail clients that you can not really expect it to work all of the time, but that option doesn't exist in mailman's configuration. Debian's mailing lists use a rather abused form of smartlist. I wouldn't want to touch that monstrosity with a five foot pole.
