You're not the only one.

Mozilla does it, too: if I hover over "Reply", the tooltip is "Reply
to Sender Only", but if I click it, I get a window that's replying
to the newsgroup.  Replyall does the obvious thing (replies to the
newsgroup and the sender, usually not very useful but at least it's
consistent with what it does in mail) but Reply is obviously
inconsistent with what the tooltip says it will do.

Is there a bug filed yet?
