That does work on Philip Rhoades' message, it doesn't work on mine
(scenario 1.2). Probably because RC eliminates any recipient address which
is identical with the sender's address.

But anyway, this can't be the solution:

1) Most users are used to simply click on the Reply button, as they can
expect that a "Reply-To:" header will be respected. They can't know that
this isn't (always) the case in Roundcube. And even if they would know it
(and if they would be aware of the logic): They can't even see the
"Mail-Reply-To:" header, unless they would take a look into the source of
the message.

So shall we now always need to load the message source first, before we can
decide which button we need to use?

2) Even if you are used to use the Reply-all button by just clicking on it,
you still don't reply to all. That's even more strange. By clicking this
button, I already stated that I want to reply to all addresses, why do I
need to emphasize it again (and even more) by selecting one of two choices?

3) To get the idea, that you need to use this or that button/option, you
have to be aware of the existence of all headers (here: "Mail-Reply-To:")
and their two-way implication. This can only be achieved by looking into the
message source upon every reply.

Sorry, but this is not what you can expect from an average user. And not
even from me (I can of course do it, but I don't want to do it).

Thanks for your other comments, I'll look closely into them.

But as a still general guideline, "Reply-To:" is "Reply-To:" and it is
RFC-wise meant as such. To completely ignore it, is IMO not the right way to
go.
