Preventing replying to original sender when forwarded to a distribution group

I have Exchange 2010 email account that is being forwarded to a distribution group that contains multiple recipients. I want to prevent the recipients from being able to reply to the original email sender. Is there  a way to do this through Exchange?

exchange or outlook or owa?
Use a dummy email or no response email as the sender and send via cc or bcc if you want to hide everyone else.

When the email is forwarded are you using a transport rule in exchange or are you setting up the forwarding in the user's configuration under the recipient?
There should be a transport rule you can create that allows you to forward the email (not copy or redirect it) to your distribution group. If you copy or bcc to your distribution group then they will be able to reply because the source of the email is the original sender. But if your forward the email they will only be able to respond to the email account who forwarded the email which you can make a dummy or no-reply account.

I have no control of sender's email addresses so I can't set it to no reply.

I setup forwarding in user's configuration under recipient. I just tried setting up a transport rule. The only forward option that I am seeing is to forward for moderation which appears to act same way as forwarding using user configuration.
