set header=yes
set edit_headers=yes
set weed=no
<reply>

Then see what happens. Use your filter to parse quoted lines as
you desire to adjust your unquoted stuff. If you don't want to
"see" all headers while typing your msg in your real editor, then
make your filter cut them off before sending to the real editor,
and reattach the necessary stuff before returning to mutt,
potentially dropping unwanted quoted lines which have been only
used to digest the msg.
