Speaking of mail replies, there's an annoyance related to using a
REPLY-TO field, which I currently use because the host I'm sending
from isn't recognized on the Internet.

When the recipient responds to a message with a REPLY-TO which also
has CC addresses, the CC's are omitted in the reply; only the REPLY-TO
address is used.  RFC822 isn't specific about this; it just says "if
REPLY-TO exists, then the reply should go to the addresses indicated
in that field and not to the address(es) indicated in the FROM field."

I'm CC'ing Header-People on this since someone there may know of a way
to do what I'm trying to do (ie, have CC's get replies if I use
REPLY-TO).  From what I can tell, the only way is to have a valid FROM
field.
