I use ucb mail in ULTRIX.  I wonder if there is an option to add a header line
of the sort:

"Reply-To: a_preferred_return_address"

in some of the mail that I send out from various machines, just like it's
done in usenet postings.  My man page on mail is silent about this.

Any hints will be appreciated.

P.S.: I do know about .forward files, but nevertheless I would prefer
      specifying a Reply-To header field.
