Not quite that simple for everyone.  My isp gives me a very long, 
convoluted, meaningless to humans, real email address and aliases my 
nice short understandable one to that.  Now if I want ppl to see the 
nice addess I have to use "Reply To".  Now this is probably just a 
Swedish thing and I maybe the only case of it happening....but it does 
happen.
