From the elm FAQ....

1.24    How to use elmheaders file?

* Arnaud Girsch (Arnaud.Girsch@INSA-Lyon.FR):
        Under  your  .elmrc  directory, create a file named elmheaders, a
        text file where you put all the lines you want to be seen in  the
        header.   If  you  redefine  an existing header, it will take its
        place.

        Example:  if  you  want  to redefine your Reply-To: header,  just
        create the file and put the following into it:

                Reply-To: myaddress@node.domain.country

        * (me):
        Please  also note that elmheaders file is NOT processed. It's ap-
        pended as it is, with the  exception  of  quoted  shell  escapes.
        Hence,  a  Bcc: will not work, but a Return-Reply-To will, as the
        latter is processed by the *receiving* MTA.
