Also, where is the reply to header?

still in the garbage, where it belongs

NANOG, being a traditional, (semi-)public, technical mailing list, has never
had a Reply-to header, and never should.  I concur with the people who assert
that adding the Reply-to header formally violates the relevant RFCs, quite
aside from the Real World problems it can (and *has*) caused.
