Two points: 1. On the PC side wit JFW 9+, there was a jaws script to reply directly to sender (perhaps alt+Y? 2. On the macintosh, if you interact with the headers, andthen when Voice Over readds the person yyou want to reply to, perform a click and a menu will appear. I think in Leopard and Tiger, one could hit VO+shift+M (contextual menu) to do this.
Creating an AppleScript to do this should be fairly easy too.
