The only RFCs mentioning Followup-To are 850 (obsolete), 1036 (news), 1855
(netiquette) and 2076 (common headers).  From RFC 2076:

   Used in Usenet News to indicate      Followup-To:   RFC 1036: 2.2.3,
   that future discussions (=follow-                   not standardized
   up) on an article should go to a                    for use in e-mail.
   different set of newsgroups than
   the replied-to article. The most
   common usage is when an article
   is posted to several newsgroups,
   and further discussions is to
   take place in only one of them.

   In e-mail, this header may occur
   in a message which is sent to
   both e-mail and Usenet News, to
   show where follow-up in Usenet
   news is wanted. The header does
   not say anything about where
   follow-up in e-mail is to be
   sent.

   Note that the value of this
   header must always be one or more
   newsgroup names, never e-mail
   addresses.
