I do not "tackle".

I just tell Gnus to follow-up, which does not always do the
right thing [*1*], and I just try to be careful and fix up To:
and Cc: fields by hand as necessary.  The time spent on that on
my part is _worth_ spending than inconveniencing others.

It's just a common courtesy, not "tackling".


[Footnote]

*1* ... most likely because I haven't configured it to do the
right thing, and/or the sender or the gateway puts a wrong
Reply-To: or Mail-Followup-To: header and it ends up honoring
them.
