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.ga14...@ingber.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.
