Their "Reply-To" is set to their email address. I've just done a View Source 
on a couple of my emails on different lists i send to and the "Reply-To" is 
also set to my email address and no-one has mentioned it to me that they have 
a problem with mine, even the poster that i have been emailing about the issue 
i have with his emails.
