Doing this seems like a good idea, but it has many implications and
annoys lots of people.  It's been discussed here before (several times);
I'd link to them, but google isn't interacting nicely with the archives
at the moment.  So, I'll leave finding those messages as an exercise.

A quick read on the issue is "'Reply-To' Munging Considered Harmful,"
available at:
  http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html

If I recall correctly, finding the archived discussions will yield a
nice piece of ASCII-art as a consolation prize =)
