I have never seen a flame like that on this list, let alone _long_ flames...

Sure it is.

Sorry.  I merely thought you really _didn't_ know what the list was.  And I 
do realize that nothing's really OT here, so I was just trying to be helpful 
and didn't suggest you should go somewhere else.

Then I'd call it a misconfiguration in T-bird, because the lists use the 
same structure, generated by the same software.  I thought you were just 
reiterating the newbie complaint about "why doesn't your list set the Reply-
To header like _all_ the other lists"...

I don't know thunderbird well (it's years since I used it), but if it's 
replying to the list automatically on the User list, then it's recognizing 
the List-Post header, and should be just as capable of doing it for all 
messages to Sounder.
