```php
add_filter( 'wpforms_entry_email_atts', function ( $email, $fields ) {
    if ( ! empty( $email['replyto'] ) ) {
        return $email;
    }

    foreach ( (array) $fields as $field ) {
        if ( isset( $field['type'] ) && 'email' === $field['type'] && is_email( $field['value'] ) ) {
            $email['replyto'] = sanitize_email( $field['value'] );
            break;
        }
    }

    return $email;
}, 10, 2 );

## Notes

Uses the first email field of the form; notifications with their own Reply-To setting are not changed.
