Ok, I've read it. It's a bunch of bunk. I use pine for mail. If there's
a reply-to: header set, I get asked if I should use the reply-to: header
instead of that of the author. I also get asked if I would like to reply
to all.
That pages drones on endlessly about "reasonable mailers". Pine is quite
reasonable, and apparently handles Reply-to: better than most mailers. I
also noticed your message id:
Message-ID: <[🔎] Pine.LNX.3.96.970321124547.3683A-100000@cantor.unex.es>
What do you know? You're using pine too. You should also be able to use
this feature. If the list won't start doing it, I think I'll just start
using some formail action to do it myself.
