In the ".nn" directory situated in your home directory create (or edit if it
already exists) a file called "init". Anywhere in the file (but above the
"sequence" line if there is one) put a line of the form:
set news-header X: y
where "X" is a header field you want to set and "y" is the value you want it
set to. Multiple fields can be set on the same line using a ";" to separate
them.
My own file includes:
set news-header Reply-To: J.R.Dermoudy@cs.utas.edu.au;Organization: University of Tasmania, at Hobart.
There is also an analogous "mail-header" variable. RTFM for more details.
