Well, right now I have a seperate folder for each mailing list, done through maildrop, so I would just add the extra header in that if(){} statement. The new reply-to address would be the list address.

Ah, good point. On the other hand, for me at least, I keep the messages in a mailing list ( my own searchable archive, as it were ), so if I wanted to respond to someone, I'm sure i could find the original email in the list.

And that is the idea. I would want to check for the presence of the header first, and if it's not set correctly or not set at all, replace it with my own. I just shortened it because I am awful at explaining long concepts. :)
