recent T'bird if the message has a List-Post: header and T'bird offers a
"Reply List" button, "Reply" will ignore Reply-To: if it's the list
address and reply to the From:. In more recent T'bird, you can restore
the expected behavior be setting mail.override_list_reply_to False in
the config editor (see
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1392371>), but this has to
be done by every list member that uses T'bird.

There are other possibilities, but I think the above is the likely issue
in your case.

Thanks Mark!
Yes, that was the problem here as I'm a Thunderbird user. Changing the above preference now makes it possible to just press "Reply" and it goes to the list.

I did notice a "Reply to list" option ("Message"-"Reply to list" menu) but I like to keep things simple, so a single "Reply" button is much preferred.

I've posted a message to my mailing list about this so that hopefully every Thunderbird user will do the same (only to remember to do a "Reply to all" and remove the list address for reply-postings not meant for the list but rather directly to the sender).

Apart from Thunderbird, are there other email apps which cause this issue?
