Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Needed: an rmail buffer with a message that contains a Reply-To
        field with an address which is different from the From field;

Do: type r (rmail-reply) in the rmail buffer
    The buffer *mail* now contains a message to the address in
    the Reply-To field (this is what I expect)

    M-x set-variable RET rmail-enable-mime RET t RET
    type r
    The buffer *mail* now contains a message to the address in
    the From field, and the Reply-To field is ignored.

I would expect it to construct a message to the address in the
Reply-To field.

Thanks,

Frederik Fouvry

PS: It should be possible to use this message to test this: I
    added a From field which is different from the Reply-to
    field (but it's also a valid address).
