Subject: PATCH: integrate Email::Reply and Email::Filter
With Mail::Audit, replying works like this: $m->reply(%options); With the PEP tools, it currently seems to be: Email::Send->new->send(reply(to => $m->simple, %options)); which sucketh. This patch brings some sanity and simplicity, supporting this: Email::Send->new->send( $m->reply(%options) ); I hope a version of this can be accepted, even if you find my current implementation evil instead of clever. There's already a ton of PEP modules. I'm not sure it's worth spawning Email::Filter::Plugin::Reply to create a solution that is cleaner in a software sense, but even more of a PITA to involve one more module from user's perspective.

The need for something like this, done with a simple plugin system, is documented. This exact change, however, will not be integrated. -- rjbs
