Thunderbird understands Mail-Followup-To. It can also set this header. 
Of course, if the webmail system does not understand this header nor 
provide a Reply-List button...then I guess we but hope that they will 
remember to remove our email address from the To: line and just leave 
the list address that is on the Cc: line. Then you are more than welcome 
to scream as much as you like or even plonk your antagonist.
