No. The proper behaviour is to leave Reply-To alone if the sender has
set one.
E.g. imagine if someone asks a question, the replies to which could
be somewhat sensitive (they're doing a survey, soliciting input,
writing a report, asking about opsec, etc..), and so they finish
with: "Reply to me in private please", and set Reply-To to themselves
to help avoid accidents...
