If your mail client is broken you can also edit the recipients manually
(like I did back when I still used Thunderbird), get the Thunderbird
developers to finally fix this (after being asked for years) or switch
to another mail client.

The problem with setting Reply-To to the list is that e.g. when I send a
mail using gmail (maybe because I'm not at home) it requires me to set a
gmail-address in the From header, while I really don't want personal
replies to go to that address (I "read" mail on gmail less than once a
week).  This is what Reply-To exists for, but unfortunately many mailing
lists break this _intended_ behaviour...
