I am expecting to reply to the Reply-To: field, if existing. If not, to the From: field. The GIMP mailing lists misses the Reply-To: field, causing a lot of annoyances and sometimes delays (delays when realising after several hours that my message was sent wrongly to the author instead to the mailing list). For a mailing lists (generally), for me the "Reply to All" is only useful if for some reason I want to reply off-list to the sender, in which case I copy-paste-delete some recipient fields in order to particularize the destination. But this is the exception, not the rule. Long time ago I used a very good mailer program for its time, PMMail, which had a very useful feature: a popup message was triggered in case the From: and Reply-To: was different, asking me to whom I want to actually reply. Unfortunately that program is now dead (and the latest versions lacks UTF-8 encoding as well as threading based on Message-ID).
