emailmail.app
I've been getting spam that has one thing in common: all the mails have a reply-to field of the form: replyto1@<domain> where the domain changes from email to email.
I'd like to set a search to filter these, but from looking around it appears that mail.app cannot filter based on the reply-to: field. Is that correct ? Is there any way around it ?
I'm running the latest update of Mavericks.
Unfortunately, there is no way to do this in Apple Mail. It only works for messages which you are replying to (they automatically use the same outgoing address which received the original message). There is no hook in AppleScript, nor an option in Automator by which to make this happen. If it were possible, as of right now, it would still require a third-party plugin, which I have not been able to find either. So unfortunately, the answer is now.
Note: Also, if you select the inbox of the account from which you want to send the message, then compose, Mail will automatically use that account's email address for sending, unless you change it. Not quite as helpful as what you were hoping for, but at least something worth considering.
Good luck and happy mailing!
You could use the
Rules in Mail and
When message arrives from ??
Forward to: someones.email.com
with predefined and automated message text that you write only once.

It is possible to search by the Reply-To filed.
In the email go to the reply-To filed hover over it till it becomes highlighted.
There is small down arrow next to it.
Click on it and new window opens allowing you to search by that Replay to field.
Here is what it looks like on my MBA.
It will only search for the part before the @.
