That isn't Netscape's fault.

It is the result of misguided list software adding a Reply-To header
to all messages passing through the list. This is almost always the
wrong thing to do.

Of course, that doesn't stop people from doing it...

See http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html for a few of the
reasons why adding that header is probably the wrong thing.
