Public bug reported:

Using list-reply to reply to multiple mailing list messages in one go
doesn't work for auto-detected mailing lists.

Steps to reproduce:

1 Find a couple of messages you have been sent from the same mailing list (one 
that uses List-Post: headers, such as those run on Mailman).
2 Ensure that you don't have that list's address in a lists or subscribes 
command.
3 On each message in turn, press L. Mutt will correctly auto-detect the mailing 
list from the List-Post: header and compose a reply addressed to the list.
4 Now tag each message with t and press ;L to list-reply to all tagged 
messages. Instead of composing a reply, Mutt gives the error message “No 
mailing lists found!”.

Clearly if Mutt is capable of detecting the mailing list in each message
separately, in can detect it when given both of them together.

Note it is possible to work round the issue by using a subscribe command
to explicitly tell Mutt about the list. But that rather defeats the
purpose of the auto-detection of Mail-Post: headers, since I might want
to tag and list-reply multiple messages on any list.

This is in Mutt 1.5.21, in Ubuntu 11.10 alpha.
