After reading the Considered Harmful article, I no longer have a strong
opinion on the issue and could live with either configuration. I'll just
tailor my mail software to my list usage behaviors. I retract my vote
for munging and would rather abstain.
While munging is convenient for mailing lists

I have counter points to each of these, but I'll start with the low
hanging fruit as I run off to class.
I'll consider the RFC stuff this evening, but from what I got glancing
at it I saw nothing that strengthens your point. Yes the reply-to

Possibly true.

to, and may affect, siglinux. The rest of the list may wish to see your
reasoning, and I DID NOT AND DO NOT WISH FOR IT TO BECOME PRIVATE.

The reasoning behind the current behavior is that MUAs have reply-to-all as a
standard feature. In mozilla mail, evolution, and kmail there is a button for
reply-to-all. In mutt the default key is g to reply-to-all. Pine seems to be
the only one I just now checked that is missing this feature.
I vote in favor of the reply-to being [EMAIL PROTECTED]
