This causes replies to: a) Not go to the original submitter b) Get cc'd to freebsd-gnats-submit, potentially opening a new PR c) Get cc'd to the date (or other weird portions of the Received line), causing strange mail errors. It also causes strict mailers such as zmailer to insert header parsing error warnings in the headers. (Not everyone sees these symptoms because many MUA's don't understand the Resent-* headers at all) >How-To-Repeat: Submit a PR without a Reply-To: header in the original email, look at the mail that gets sent to the freebsd-bugs mailing list. >Fix: Make gnats add the original message From: to the Resent-Reply-To: header if the original message has to Reply-To: header. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
