I suppose that's what Mail-Followup-To is for, isn't it? If that header
is specified, that's where you should reply (unless it's obviously
wrong).
Apparently mutt has an "honor_followup_to" variable, which is set by
default, and even a list reply honors it, but I think it also includes
the original list. I'm confused!
