Subject: Reply-to field

Is it possible to change automatically the 'Reply-to' field when
creating an email? I know that mailx in SOF can do it (mailx -r ....).

Thank you.

I suspect you're already half way there if you have a "Reply-to:" header;
one isn't included by default in Pine so I presume you must have already
found the "customized-hdrs" variable in Pine's Setup Configuration screen
in order to add it?

All you need do is to change this slightly to include a default value
after the "Reply-to:" header you've set there.  From:

    customized-hdrs          = Reply-to:

to something like

    customized-hdrs          = Reply-to: Patrick Lenders <[email-masked]>

Cheers,

    I can't think of any way to do it _automatically_.  However, you
can certainly change it manually for every message if you want. 
Assuming you have defined Reply-To: in your personal configuration,
just edit it the way you would any other header field.  (Depending on 
how you have things set up, you might need to press Control-R to bring
up Rich Headers when editing the header fields.)  When you update your
configuration, you can put in a default value for the field or just
leave it blank.
