Actually, Evolution is behaving semi-correctly.  The Reply-To: header is 
there and says that reply's should go to the list.  And that is what 
happens for you.

IMO, "reply to all" should go to the list and the sender, which is what 
kmail does, but apparently Evolution does not.  I suspect that Evolution 
behaves this way because that is what Outlook does.  If you are going to 
use an Outlook clone, you are going to get bug-for-bug compatibility.
