Read RFC-822 some time :). There are plenty of good reasons to generate a
Reply-To header. The gist of it is that one uses a Reply-To header when
the sender wishes to direct replies to a mailbox other than the one in the
- From header.

Because making the From header say "the right thing" may be incorrect
behaviour as far as the mail and news RFCs are concerned.
