try:

Nice idea, but it appears to suffer the same expansion problem.

As you have written it gives this error:

Bare %{...} is invalid in condition at: %{reply:Reply-Message} =~ /(.*)/)

Adding the double quotes:

Oh right. I usually do this with e.g. User-Name without having to specify the attribute list explicitly; I forget whether syntax works to do that with a raw variable. I know outer.VarName works raw, so maybe just reply:Reply-Message without the braces or quotes?
