Actually that's not true,
reply to: is not a hack and is very much a standard to include in the
headers, its part of the rfc standard, after having written a mail server as
a project its not hard to create a mailinglist option that sets this info up
properly.
If you setup your mail client with the reply to field different to your
email address, your email client will add this line or did you not know
that?

Most likely because they've bastardised the mail headers to force in a
reply-to address that wasn't ever there.
Thankfully most people on this list understand that when an email
arrives from an address, "reply" will reply to it.
Having said that, it does catch a lot of noobs out.
Best regards,
