How about a little bit of politeness and respect?
Sorry. The message I replied to was a little terse too, not the first time that person had raised this, added nothing new to the topic, and is definitely a FAQ. Is this a better summary for the FAQ maintainer:
Setting reply-to is non-standard, destroys data and breaks some mail clients, so neither setting nor leaving it pleases everyone. In the absence of consensus, this list supports RFC-2369 and RFC-2919 (email headers that start List-) so that good email software can be customised to do whatever its owner wants. You can do this with filters that set a Reply-To (eg using maildrop with formail) or specific mailing list support settings in your email reader.
?
Now, how about you being polite and respectful too? ;-)
