Steve,
I think that this is a bad suggestion since there are some people
(such as me) who use the Reply-To headers to ensure that the recipients
have a valid reply address to reply to us. If the mailing list rewrites
the Reply-To by putting itself in that header, then the valid reply
address is lost.
Furthermore, I think that the original problem of getting two
copies of the same mail can be solved easily by using procmail.

Kenneth
