Depends on the MUA. See both sides of the debate here: 
http://marc.merlins.org/netrants/listreplyto.html . We use reply-to for 
the pgfoundry admins list, but that's a closed list. For open lists that 
often accept non-member posts it is much more of a problem, not least 
for the reason you suggest.
