Let receivers of an email reply to a different address

Am using gmail smtp to send email messages and it works fine. The only problem is that I want receipients of the email to reply to a different email address. In other words I send them an email as from [email protected] but when they click reply the message should be replied to [email protected] or [email protected]. How can I accomplish this please.

In my settings.py I have:

EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
EMAIL_PORT = 587

In my views.py I have:

email = EmailMessage(
            subject='Registration Successful',
            body=msg,
            from_email='My Name <[email protected]>',
            to='[email protected]')
        email.send()

This works but the recipient replies to [email protected]. I want the recipient to reply to [email protected]. Please What do I need to do to this code.

Try adding a Reply-To header to the email:

email = EmailMessage(
            subject='Registration Successful',
            body=msg,
            from_email='My Name <[email protected]>',
            to='[email protected]',
            headers={'Reply-To': '[email protected]'})
email.send()
