Below is a sample mail file (I have dozens like it) that appears to have
been rejected due to a poorly built 'Reply-To' line:

Notice how the trailing '>' appears two lines after the Reply-To line.
Some mailer adds the Apparently-To line after the final RFC822 header line
which is delineated by a blank line.  For some reason Listserv at either
DEARN or NDSUVM1 built the Reply-to wrong.  Can this be fixed?
