This Header never made it past draft stage:

http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/98dec/I-D/draft-ietf-drums-mail-followup-to-00.txt



Obviously there must be valid reasons it never made it past draft 
stage (notwithstanding anyone's personal insistence that this is a 
"better" solution - e.g. 
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2000-November/007944.html).   
RFC 2919 was instead selected as the RFC method for responding to mail 
messages which, as Jan mentioned, has been supported by IMP for years.

There exists an RFC for mailing list message header which is being 
used by IMP since years. This one doesn't look like being any 
standard, nor well supported by mail applications.

But I'll give Michael the final call.

IMP does not respect the Mail-Followup-To header. When replying to a 
message from a mailing list, one can either "Reply" to the sender, or 
"Reply to all" and send a copy to all addresses listed in the headers.
