It would break useful functionality in mailers that are written correctly, and increase the likelihood of private replies going to the list mistakenly from broken mailers. The dubious benefits are rather outweighed by this. Anybody that wants to set their own Reply-To: header is free to do so; why take that freedom away from them? -- "Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited email message. Nor will I forward chain letters, petitions, mass mailings, or virus warnings to large numbers of others. This is my contribution to the survival of the online community." - Roger Ebert, "The Boulder Pledge"
