Where did you read that Reply-To should be used for a global reply ?

I can read from the RFC2822 that :

   Note: Some mail applications have automatic reply commands that
   include the destination addresses of the original message in the
   destination addresses of the reply. How those reply commands behave
   is implementation dependent and is beyond the scope of this

   document.
   ^^^^^^^^

So I guess there's another RFC somewhere that suggests using the
Reply-To for global replies, that you forgot to cite.

Also, I'll follow your recommendation when you'll give me a solution
to make a private reply a message setting the "Reply-to" field to a
list.
