From FSC-0035:

^REPLYTO zone:net/node firstname lastname

which is used to signify the "userid" which mail destined to this other
network must be sent to and on which machine that userids resides.
Replies are sent to this zone:net/node and userid with the first line of
the message being changed into 'TO: ....' where .... is the FULL userid
from the ^AREPLYADDR line.

In anycase, OpenXP seems to be ignoring it. :(

It's an FSC document, so not a standard...

Yep, precisely and it's entirely at the discretion of software developers whether they implement the feature or not.

Well.. let's hope that Gunter would like to give it a shot.

Onward and upward. On we go!

"Totally transparent" seems to be a good thing.

Hi Wilfred!

The ^REPLYID seems to go missing in OpenXP.

You mean the @REPLY: kludge?

At closer inspection, we may both be wrong. The samples show
@REPLYTO.
