Empty “to” field (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Usually, I use my prefered MUA to write mail . I know how it works, and all is OK. I can modify my mail as I want. sometimes I don’t have access to, and to send mail with my gmail account, the easiest way is to use the google webmail . Today, I have a mail to send, and I want to modify the “reply-to” field. With thunderbird or mutt , it is quite easy (select the filed, and modify it), but today (novembre 2013) gmail requires a more complicated and non intuitive setting.  I understand this field is considered by google as a permanent setting as it require to open the settings menu . For me, it is still a per-mail setting (as the other field: from, to, cc, bcc).
