[techtalk] Pine and Reply-to

[Nicole Zimmerman]

You can also use roles (depending on version of pine... if it is below
4.0 probably not). Roles will recognise a line in a header and form a
pre determined (by you) header 
to base the response on.

I guess I don't see the point in manually editing it too many times...
kind of like code. If you catch yourself writing similar code more than
twice, put it in a function. If you catch yourself changing the same
header more than twice, put it in a role (or edit your .pinerc to change
your from: or...).

Of course if you are stuck with version 3.96 this would be a different
story. Version 4.10 is very stable and I personally would recommend an
upgrade ;o)
