You should have searched for "reply_to", but be warned ... it might also be 
a problem with the email client where clicking "reply" does not use the 
expected header to get the reply address.

As I understand it, "reply_to" is typically used when you "want" to reply 
to list.  Without a "reply_to" header, the email client is expected to 
reply to the email address in "From" header.  If the email client is 
"broken", nothing you do on server will produce desired results.
