Description of problem: In Evolution in a mail message the Reply-To value is properly saved to drafts. After clicking on the draft, in the message preview pane I can see the Reply-To value. It is saved correctly. If you open the draft, the manually set Reply-To value is discarded and the default Reply-To value is used. I tested only with my account on Microsoft Exchange 2010 email server. Account type is ews. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-3.24.4-1.fc26.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start a new email message in Evolution (Evolution -- File -- New -- Mail Message) 2. manually set a Reply-To value 3. save message as draft (File -- Save as Draft) 4. close mail message window 5. open draft Actual results: manually set Reply-To value is replaced with default Reply-To value Expected results: manually set Reply-To value should be used, if it was set or it is different from default Reply-To value Additional info: The default Reply-To value can be set via: Evolution -- Edit -- Preferences -- [Mail Accounts] -- <select account> -- [Edit] -- Identity -- Optional Information -- Reply-To: The email-specific Reply-To value can be set via: 1. Evolution -- File -- New -- Mail message 2.

Thanks for a bug report and detailed steps. I made it work for the next release, with the below change. It covers also messages reopened from the Outbox folder (or at least which look like that).
