He did it on purpose. You'll note earlier in his message he wrote the
following:

Implication being that he was attempting to divert my "reply rant" from
getting a "public airing" unless I "over-ride the automatically provided
recipient address". Which I did. Of course why he would want to redirect my
mail from 204.92.254.24 (building.weird.com) where he normally processes his
mail to 204.29.161.33 (mail.planix.com) is left as an exercise to the reader.
Answer's in the thread. ;)
The real question is if I set my reply-to on this message to something and
he replies will he change the reply-to?
