Well, it's just that MUAs should have three choices:
- reply to sender
- reply all
- reply to recipients (aka reply to mailing-list (aka followup)
And since you can't tell whether reply-to holds the address of the sender or
of the mailing-list (i.e. recipients) or (as was originally intended I believe)
of the destination intended for the answer (i.e. neither the sender, nor the
recipients), MUAs should just ignore it.

recent versions of the 2.0 kernels ?
