That's easy to explain. The above header shows that this copy of the message 
did not go through the mailing list (because the usual List-* headers are 
missing), but was delivered directly to your inbox. Therefore KMail has no way 
to know that this message was (also) sent to a mailing list. Consequently, 
reply-to-list cannot work and normal reply replies to the sender's address.
