Package: reportbug
Version: 6.4.4+deb7u1
Severity: normal

I have the following in ~/.reportbugrc:

replyto "Ian Zimmerman <itz+debbugs at buug.org>"

As you can check yourself by examining this very report, the setting
seems to be silently ignored.

Notes:

- I know the config file itself is being read, because the
  X-Debbugs-No-Ack header makes it in.

- I send my reports in the following manner: at the last reportbug
  prompt I hit "n", which saves the report as a complete rfc-822 message
  to a file under /tmp.  Then I pipe this file into (approximately)
  "/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi submit at bugs.debian.org".
