Well, I'm sorry, but 99% of the time when I reply to emails I blindly
accept Reply-To. I don't have the time/patience/concern/whatever to
scrutinize the recipients of every reply that I send. I assume that the
software will "do the right thing". And I suspect that I am pretty
typical in this.
What if there's no Reply-To? Is "blind acceptance" of From a bad idea?
