As I said, it works perfectly for me in TB, so not sure what are you
doing wrong - probably not using the Smart Reply button (or CTRL+SHIFT+L
for Reply to List, which does nothing if there are no List headers).

TB has a 'Smart Reply' button that automatically replies to list when
list headers are present - if not, then it replies to the sender, or
whatever is in the 'Reply-To' field, if non-empty.

Nope, just a happy end user pointing out an excellent and very simple
feature that most other clients don't have.

Signed up to the list a long time ago when researching alternatives to
TB when I thought it might die when Mozilla all but abandoned it
(happily, it is doing better than ever since then).

I don't... not sure why you seem to care so much.
