reply with receiving mail id

reply with receiving mail id

[Yagnesh Raghava Yakkala]

Hello,

Gnus is inserting my default email id to "From:" field when replying a
message. But I would like Gnus to look into the original to find "To:" address
and set it to "From:" while replying.  is it possible?

Hope question is clear.

Thanks.,

,----[ (info "(message)Message Headers") ]
| `message-alternative-emails'
|      Regexp matching alternative email addresses.  The first address in
|      the To, Cc or From headers of the original article matching this
|      variable is used as the From field of outgoing messages, replacing
|      the default From value.
| 
|      For example, if you have two secondary email addresses
|      john@home.net and john.doe@work.com and want to use them in the
|      From field when composing a reply to a message addressed to one of
|      them, you could set this variable like this:
| 
|           (setq message-alternative-emails
|                 (regexp-opt '("john@home.net" "john.doe@work.com")))
| 
|      This variable has precedence over posting styles and anything that
|      runs off `message-setup-hook'.

Bye, Reiner.
