No. For good reasons about this, see

Sorry, not convinced.
I don't buy the generalized Unix notion that "doing things the hard way
is a virtue." Literally every other mailing list in which I participate
sets the Reply-To header to the list. It works better. This one is the
anomaly and routinely results in e-mails being sent to individuals, not
to the list, resulting in "please send all e-mails to the list" posts, etc.
Not so for any of the lists that I am subscribed to (Linux mtd, u-boot,
some eCos lists...). They have the same policy as the lilypond list.
