Mail.app and NewsGrazer: can a default Reply-To: header be added?

It seems as if the following should be do-able, but I have been unable to discover *how*... I want all outgoing message to contain a Reply-To: header field with a reply address other than the From: address which is added by default. Does anyone know of a way to do this? I don't want to set up a .forward file though, because I still want to be able to receive mail sent *explicitly* to me on the NeXT. I only recently discovered that there is a way to do this in Mail.app on *individual* outgoing messages - under the Tools menu, Options, a Reply-To: header can be added to that message. But I'm hoping that there is a way to make it happen automagically, to *all* outgoing mail. It would be nice to be able to do this from NewsGrazer too - and maybe it is, although I haven't yet stumbled upon the means - to have any Email followups to a NewsGrazer posting always come to an Email address other than the default From: field. Any tips on this are welcome too... ..Michael Hayward hayward@sfu.ca P.S: I'm running NS 2.1 by the way...

There's a similar thing there. Now, does anyone know how to do the same thing from /usr/ucb/mail???

Does > anyone know of a way to do this? As someone else points out, 3.0 Mail lets you do this, NewsGrazer post preferences also includes a Reply-To field that you can set. The generic solution to wanting extra headers is to replace the mailer (or, in NewsGrazers case, inews) in preferences. Put in a script that runs awk/gawk/perl as you prefer, and let it add the header.
