A number of users (including me) argue that Reply All should put the
prior sender's address in the To: field and the other recipients'
addresses in the CC: field.  That was the way the mail-news component
used to work.  This argument appears to be supported by RFC 5322, which
is the closest statement to a standard that exists on this issue.

See bug #933472 at
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=933472>.  If Mozilla and
Mozilla-based products are to continue claiming to be
standards-compliant, this needs to be fixed.
