Thanks! Nice to know that I'm not alone in this. IMHO, I don't think
that this is a problem of the list, although your observation regarding
the Reply-to (it's optional, right?) header is probably correct.

I'm thinking that maybe we have something common in our setup that
changes/mangles the follow up behavior for this specific group. For
example I have a couple of other imap groups for which I receive mail
with no Reply-to header, and F works just fine (wide reply + yank). It's
only this group that I have the problem with.
