There are two ways to get a Reply-to header in your outgoing message:
	1. Use the header editing screen, enterable by hitting "h" on
	the send menu.

	2. Use an .elm/elmheaders file, which is tagged onto the headers
	generated "inside" elm when you send a message.

I believe the header editing screen and the elmheaders file are mentioned
in the Reference Guide, but may not speicifically mention their relevance
to this particular header.
