Trouble is, I frequently "send from" @hughes-family.org, which if you
reverse map the IP is somewhere in *.dsl.mindspring.net, and my reply to
is set to @stanfordalumni.org -- and then sometimes I have replyto
hughes-family and from "kingbrown.com" where I sometimes work. Or from
"yahoo.com" if I can't reach any of my other sending places, but still
want replies to not end up in my yahoo.com spamtrap. The whole point of
reply-to is that it can help you in situations where replies need to go
somewhere very different from the "From" place.
