"Reply-to" field in Laravel mail is not working

Question

I need help to figure out how to set the reply-to field in app/config/mail.php. I'm using Laravel 4 and it's not working. This is my app/config/mail.php:

<?php  return array(     'driver' => 'smtp',     'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',     'port' => 587,     'from' => [         'address' => '[email protected]',         'name' => 'E-mail 1'     ],     'reply-to' => [         'address' => '[email protected]',         'name' => 'E-mail 2'     ],     'encryption' => 'tls',     'username' => '[email protected]',     'password' => 'pwd',     'pretend' => false, );

Pretty sure it doesn't work this way. You can set the "From" header in the config file, but everything else is passed during the send:

Mail::send('emails.welcome', $data, function($message) {     $message->to('[email protected]', 'John Smith')         ->replyTo('[email protected]', 'Reply Guy')         ->subject('Welcome!'); }); 

FWIW, the $message passed to the callback is an instance of Illuminate\Mail\Message, so there are various methods you can call on it:

• ->from($address, $name = null)
• ->sender($address, $name = null)
• ->returnPath($address)
• ->to($address, $name = null)
• ->cc($address, $name = null)
• ->bcc($address, $name = null)
• ->replyTo($address, $name = null)
• ->subject($subject)
• ->priority($level)
• ->attach($file, array $options = array())
• ->attachData($data, $name, array $options = array())
• ->embed($file)
• ->embedData($data, $name, $contentType = null)

Plus, there is a magic __call method, so you can run any method that you would normally run on the underlying SwiftMailer class.
