Put fallback reply-key address first in the References header

The References header is an ordered list of mails, and some clients
only look at the last mail in the list to determine to which mail the
mail is in reply to.

Therefore, to be a less obtrusive as possible, put the fallback
address first.

Some info about the reply key lookup in the References header:
