In which case write a rule in which emails from A={gmail,yahoo} with a
reply-to to a different B={gmail,yahoo} address get blocked (your
decision whether to block only when A == B etc.) … no reason to prevent
legitimate reply-to use cases such as those mentioned by others above,
and such a rule against the big internet mail sites is likely to hit
only a very small proportion of those legitimate users! :)
