This is a lot of my feedback as well. You're depending upon the mail client
to actually accept and obey a reply-to. Also lots of people compulsively
hit reply-all as opposed to reply and thus you'll still get me-too
responses.

It's not a bad suggestion, just I think one that's not going to solve the
problem. A good step in the right direction.
