I'm having a very similar problem.

I use procmail to categorize my mail, based mostly on who I'm
corresponding with.  Since I don't want to have to maintain a
duplicate copy of all of my procmail rules using save-hooks, I simply
Bcc: myself on outgoing mail and let procmail check both sender and
recipient.

However, one of the Unix labs my group admins has an alias
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (not the real domain) which the users use to
contact us about system problems.  When a user mails this alias, I
want to group-respond to the user and back to the alias, so that my
fellow admins can stay in the loop.  Since I'm sending the mail to
this alias, I don't need a seperate Bcc for myself.

So here's what I've got in my .muttrc:

send-hook .* unmy_hdr Reply-to
send-hook .*@.*(foo|bar).uiuc.edu my_hdr Reply-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
send-hook .* my_hdr Bcc: roth
send-hook manager@.*(foo|bar).uiuc.edu unmy_hdr Bcc

The first two lines work as I intended: If I mail anyone in the
foo.uiuc.edu or bar.uiuc.edu domains, it adds a Reply-to: field so
their responses go to the manager alias.

The last two lines don't work at all.  For some reason, the Bcc: field
never gets set, regardless of who the message is going to.

Felix, could you post this patch?  I'd be interested in seeing if it
fixes my problem.

I've tried this with 0.95.4i on a number of platforms, with the same
result.  An old 0.88 Solaris binary I had lying around also has this
problem.  I've attached the output of "mutt -v" from my desktop
machine.

Thanks in advance for any info.
