Take for example this very mail that you are just reading.
Where should the reply go when you click "Reply", to me or to the
list?

"Some administrators claim that Reply-To munging makes it easier
for users to respond to the entire list, and helps encourage list
traffic. These benefits are fallacious. Moreover, Reply-To can have
harmful -- even dangerous -- effects. If you think Reply-To munging
is a good idea, I hope I can change your mind."

And for a counterpoint:

"Some administrators claim that Reply-To munging can have harmful --
even dangerous -- effects. I assert the opposite, that not adding a
Reply-To header has even more harmful effects. If you think Reply-To
munging is a bad idea, I hope I can change your mind."
