As I've explained in other messages, it's generally a bad idea for mailing
list managers to replace or insert Reply-To: headers in the mail they
forward along. While it may seem to be a convenience to have it, you *will*
regret it the first time you accidentally send a message to the list that is
intended just for the person whose message you are replying to. If Pine
doesn't allow you to easily edit headers, get a mail user agent that works
well with editors like Emacs or vi. I happen to use VM, a standard package
bundled with Emacs and XEmacs, but I'm sure there are others that provide
similar features.
