We need:

replies go.
And rules to determins which takes priority if they conflict.
I think it is clear that Reply-To is the proper header for #3.
No, it's not at all clear that "Reply-To:" is the proper header for #3.
#3 should be separated into cases where "From:" is the proper header,
and cases where it is not. "Reply-To:" is currently used for both #2
and #3 (and is sometimes even used for the subset of case #3 where
"From:" would have been more appropriate).
