This function accepts a number of named parameters and returns an email
message object of type C<Email::MIME> or C<Email::Simple>, depending
on the parameters passed. Lets review those parameters now.

C<to> - This required parameter is the email message you're replying to. It
can represent a number of object types, or a string containing the message.
This value is passed directly to C<Email::Abstract> without passing go or
collecting $200 so please, read up on its available plugins for what is
allowed here.

C<from> - This optional parameter specifies an email address to use indicating
the sender of the reply message. It can be a string or an C<Email::Address>
object. In the absence of this parameter, the first address found in the
original message's C<To> header is used. This may not always be what you want,
so this parameter comes highly recommended.

C<all> - This optional parameter indicates weather or not you'd like to
"Reply to All." If true, the reply's C<Cc> header will be populated with
all the addresses in the original's C<To> and C<Cc> headers. By default,
the parameter is false, indicating "Reply to Sender."

C<self> - This optional parameter decides weather or not an address matching
the C<from> address will be included in the list of C<all> addresses. If
true, your address will be preserved in that list if it is found. If false,
as it is by default, your address will be removed from the list. As you might
expect, this parameter is only useful if C<all> is true.

C<attach> - This optional parameter allows for the original message, in
its entirety, to be encapsulated in a MIME part of type C<message/rfc822>.
If true, the returned object from C<reply> will be a C<Email::MIME> object
whose second part is the encapsulated message. If false, none of this happens.
By default, none of this happens.

C<quote> - This optional parameter, which is true by default, will quote
the original message for your reply. If the original message is a MIME
message, the first C<text/plain> type part will be quoted. If it's a Simple
message, the body will be quoted. Well, that's only if you keep the
parameter true. If you don't, none of this occurs.

C<top_post> - This optional parameter, whose use is generally discouraged,
will allow top posting when true. It will implicitly set C<quote> to true,
and put your C<body> before the quoted text. It is false by default, and
you should do your best to keep it that way.

C<keep_sig> - This optional parameter toggles the signature stripping
mechanism. True by default, the original quoted body will have its signature
removed. When false, the signature is left in-tact and will be quoted
accordingly. This is only useful when C<quote> is true.

C<prefix> - This optional parameter specifies the quoting prefix. By default,
it's C<< > >>, but you can change it by setting this parameter. Again, only
useful when C<quote> is true.

C<attrib> - This optional parameter specifies the attribution line to add
to the beginning of quoted text. By default, the name or email address
of the original sender is used to replace C<%s> in the string, C<"%s wrote:">.
You may change that with this parameter. No special formats, C<sprintf()> or
otherwise, are provided for your convenience. Sorry, you'll have to make due.
Like C<prefix> and C<keep_sig>, this is only good when C<quote> is true.

C<body> - This requried parameter contains your prose, your manifesto, your
reply. Remember to spell check!
