Sorry, I don't think that helps everyone. Berkeley mail (if I assume
that the 4.3 tahoe one can speak for the other ones) does not allow
the user to add any more than {To,Subject,Cc,Bcc}. I have long been
wanting to use a Reply-To with it. Seeing your Message-ID I assume it
is GNUS and so I can assume that you use some sort of mailer that
speaks directly to the MTA. Sendmail doesn't allow From line override
unless the user is 'trusted'.

When will Reply-To become a standard option in BSD mail? :-( Please,
no MUA wars. As much as I love to use vi, I love using mail (ofcourse
coupled with the power of vi).

I would be happy to take a Sendmail rule for that if somebody can give
me one. Till then I guess I will have to use Rnmail for such things.
