FreeBSD scry.dstc.edu.au 2.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 2.2-CURRENT #2: Fri Jul 26 17:14:34

>Description:

        send-pr would be nicer with a configurable Reply-To field

>How-To-Repeat:

        Because I have different username on the mailhost for this site,
        i have to put a reply-to on all my mail. thats fine. send-pr
        assumes that your LOGNAME is your reply-to address.

>Fix:

patch below
or you way want to have the REPLY_TO envvar take precedence over
the dotfile
