You know.. I'm on a LOT of MLs (and I'm a moderator on several right now). Most munge the reply-to (including the ones I moderate)... and I've never, in all the years I've been on MLs, seen this scenario happen... not once. Yet it's always used as an example of how things can go wrong with munged reply-tos
I am surprised that you haven't encountered it once. I am on a lot of mailing lists too and I have seen this happening on mailing lists that munge the reply-to header (for example jpilot). The vocation mails and the subsequent complains to have the email address temporarily unsubscribed is annoying.
