Yes, you could always try recompiling pine to get a reply-to field, but
while you're doing that, you can do my laundry and pay for my ticket to
the czech republic...after you're done doing those things, you can try
the following:
from pine (version 3.92-3.94 at least) you go from the main menu to
(S)etup
(C)onfigure
(W)hereIs
type:
default-composer-
It will take you to the default-composer-hdrs option
Next:
(A)dd Value
To:
(A)dd Value
Cc:
(A)dd Value (careful to type it exactly as I say below!)
Attchmnt:
(yes, that is an incorrect spelling but it HAS to be spelled that way)
(A)dd Value
Subject:
(A)dd Value
Reply-To:
Next:
Press the down arrow to get to "customized-hdrs" and do:
(A)dd Value
Reply-To: vnavrat@luc.edu
Next:
(E)xit Configuration
(Q)uit Pine (and restart for the change to take effect)
(Y)es, really quit!
Now type: pine and press enter :p
That is it!
<insert blurb from well-meaning linux fanatic>
WARNING: MicroSoft mail (comes standard with M$-Winblows'95) violates the
SMTP RFC and does *NOT* honor the Reply-To field and uses the From: field
instead!! So you may still have to check the "From:" location unless you
.forward from that location to the Reply-To: location.
<end blurb>
btw, when's the party?
Imagine the flame wars that will happen *in person*
