PS: Postmaster, please, set the "Reply-To:" to gpc@gnu.de for this list. It isn't nice to change the address every time.

Every Real Mailer [TM] has at least a "group reply" or a "reply to all" function. `mutt' even has a "list reply" in addition which makes dealing with mailing lists really comfortable.
I use the Real Mailer [TM] mentioned on that site as example, AND I'm aware of the functionality. Still I make the mistake at least 50% of the time, simply because all other lists do have this done.
I also think his "against" arguments are either dubious or coloured, or non-existant in practice.
I'm on maillists that have reply-to's for about a decade now, and never had any problem. (and more important, never heard any complaint about reply-to)
