Tips

• Replies to the sender and all original To/CC recipients.
• Use --to to add extra recipients to the To field.
• Use --cc to add new CC recipients.
• Use --bcc for recipients who should not be visible to others.
• Use --remove to exclude recipients from the outgoing reply, including the sender or Reply-To target.
• The command fails if no To recipient remains after exclusions and --to additions.
