Please don't.  Nearly no technical mailing-list sets Reply-To, and in 
particular neither the Arch lists nor the Haskell lists do.*  If it's 
really impossible to use mailing-lists with GMail (I don't know, I don't 
use GMail) then I guess you should find another client.  Some clients 
have a "Reply To List" specifically, and for those that don't, "Reply To 
All" or equivalent is usually acceptable enough (are there any clients 
that don't have this??) (it produces the effect Xyne notes of "Is there 
a reason that everyone seems to send their replies to individual posters 
and only CC to the list?", but this works out acceptably in practice 
because To and CC have the same effect - emails go there -, and because 
the mailing-list defaults not to send extra copies to people who are 
already To/CC'ed)

* the old canonical arguments about Reply-To munging pro and con that 
I'd cite seem to have broken websites now, requiring archive.org usage, 
but here's an updated one:
