I was thinking in terms of AB macros. However, the moment you hit
reply, the reply-to address is already filled in as the new TO
address, so the AB template wouldn't kick in. :-(
I think a conditional RegEx could do it. However, you would have to go
to the TBTECH list to ask for details.

What email program is he using? If he uses TB, he can set it up so
that for any messages to you, the Reply-To address in the account
settings is overwritten with his personal email address.
Actually, while he would be right in a sense to be upset if you
disclosed his salary to the whole department, it is not your fault,
because he has set up his email program so that he actually requests
you to reply to the other address. The fault is technically at his
side.
JE> Any suggestions/guidelines you can offer I would appreciate.
You could take a look at the TO address before you hit send. ;-)
