No, no, no. Again, this has been discussed to death. 

Reason:

If some recipient as not reachable, the sender of a mail to
debian-user gets a message from the particulta MTA (unfortunately,
this happens annoyingly often)

If the Reply-To: points to the list, many (all?) MTAs will send this
message to the list (to the annoyance of all subscribers) *and* this
message will be send to this particular subscribed. Again, it can't be 
delivered, and the MTA sends a message about this to the list ....

Can you say ping-pong.

The whole list would be the not-so-cheerful audience of the MTA
talking to himself.

End of discussion I hope.

Ciao,
