    Yes.

    I posted to question. Headers of that message included

    Mail-Followup-To: svn <dev@subversion.tigris.org>

    This header hasn't taken off beyond being an IETF proposal
    (http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/98dec/I-D/draft-ietf-drums-mail-followup-to-00.txt)
    but is honored, and set, by MUAs such as mutt or gnus.

    I'm not particularly interested in discussing the procedures that
    should precede a Subversion release, yet the posts end up in my
    inbox, and that's what I object. I might have mutt send
    Reply-To: dev@subversion.tigris.org in my (very infrequent) posts to
    the list, but that would make it hard for anyone wanting to send me
    a truly private reply.

    Anyway, I'll just shut up, and eventually just mangle the Reply-To
    heeader.

    BTW, thanks for the software, it rocks.
