- Certainly...
- First, that should probably be joffe%gts01@gts.elan.af.mil with a percent
- rather than an at symbol to be a proper routing address for sendmail.
-
- To do this, you must have allowed elm to create a .elm directory. Create a
- file in the .elm directory named elmheaders. Put the Reply-To: header you
- want to appear on all of your messages into this file as such...
-
- --- ${HOME}/.elm/elmheaders -------------------------------------------------
- Reply-To: joffe%gts01@gts.elan.af.mil
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- And this line will be put in the header of every message elm sends out.

- enjoy,
