If you've told mutt that you are subscribed to the cygwin list by
putting

    subscribe cygwin

in your muttrc file, then mutt should generate the appropriate
headers automatically when you reply to the list with the 'L'
command.

In this reply, for example, I see that mutt automatically added

    In-Reply-To: <20161221202630 DOT GA14876 AT ingber DOT com>

as well as the From:, To: and Subject: headers.

For more on this, see the mutt manual, section 12 Mailing Lists and
section 5.4 Miscellaneous Functions, the <list-reply> function.

Regards,
Gary
