MFT consisting of To+Cc+(From/Reply-To/Mail-Reply-To) is equivalent to
no MFT at all; we don't need to generate MFT for such a case.

As far as determining whether to include the sender (equivalently,
whether to generate MFT), I think I like Matt's idea better.  Certain
addressees are better determinants than certain groups.

Quite.  I'm tired of having to maintain my list-address file for
qmail-inject separately from my to-list parameters.
