I cannot tell which one does but there *must* be some such beasts
around. When sending a mail with my postmaster hat on, I'm setting
both From: and Reply-To: to our postmaster address (wrongly believing
that people would reply to the postmaster address instead of my
personnal address; too bad when I'm on holiday for a month :-) ).
I keep on getting replys sent to my personnal address (the
sender: address) instead of the postmaster one.
