This is something that we worked very hard on in Andrew during the 
1980's.  Although the protocols have only become more complex since 
then, at that time we found that it was possible to devise an algorithm 
that did an extremely satisfactory job at what we then called "Wide 
Replies" using only a single non-standard extension to the email 
protocols.  The non-standard header we used was

      X-Andrew-Wide-Reply:  <addrlist>

That looks rather like Mail-Followups-To to me.
