Re: How to add a 'In-Reply-To' using 'formail'. Plz help.

Ankur asked,

Is there any way I can add the header 'In-Reply-To' to the mail before
hitting the Mailman using formail.

Yes, but the difficult parts for the software are figuring out whether the message actually is a reply and should have an In-Reply-To: header in the first place, and if so, finding which previous post it's answering. If the respective answers are "its subject starts with `re:'" and "it will be the most recent preceding post with the same subject modulo `re:'," then that is mere subject grouping, which any mail client should be able to do already.
