6.1.  Reply-To

   The Reply-To header specifies a reply address(es) to be used for
   personal replies for the author(s) of the article when this is
   different from the author's address(es) given in the From header. The
   content syntax makes use of syntax defined in [MESSFOR], but subject
   to the revised definition of local-part given in section 5.2.

      Reply-To-content    = From-content  ; see 5.2
   In the absence of Reply-To, the reply address(es) is the address(es)
   in the From header. For this reason a Reply-To SHOULD NOT be included
   if it just duplicates the From header.

        NOTE: Use of a Reply-To header is preferable to including a
        similar request in the article body, because reply agents can
        take account of Reply-To automatically.

   An address of "<>" in the Reply-To header MAY be used to indicate
   that the poster does not wish to recieve email replies.
