Mail-Followup-To Header. From the manual:
4.8 Handling Mailing Lists
[snip]
Mutt also supports the Mail-Followup-To header. When you send a message
to a list of recipients which includes one or several subscribed
mailing lists, and if the $followup_to option is set, mutt will
generate a Mail-Followup-To header which contains all the recipients to
whom you send this message, but not your address. This indicates that
group-replies or list-replies (also known as `followups'') to this
message should only be sent to the original recipients of the message,
and not separately to you - you'll receive your copy through one of the
mailing lists you are subscribed to.
Conversely, when group-replying or list-replying to a message which has
a Mail-Followup-To header, mutt will respect this header if the
$honor_followup_to configuration variable is set. Using list-reply will
in this case also make sure that the reply goes to the mailing list,
even if it's not specified in the list of recipients in the
Mail-Followup-To.
Note that, when header editing is enabled, you can create a
Mail-Followup-To header manually. Mutt will only auto-generate this
header if it doesn't exist when you send the message.
