I think the intention is to look for spam where the headers say it's a
reply, but it doesn't look like a reply. reply-type seems to be made-up
by Microsoft so the rule is looking for spoofed headers.
The problem is that, from a quick search though this list, reply-type
doesn't seem to specific to replies.
