Honestly, I suspect thunderbird just doesn't know your addresses if
it's adding your address back in. Adding your address isn't for you-
it's for other people. The, completely reasonable, assumption is that
if your address was included in a To or Cc that you're not on the list
and stripping that out would mean you'd be left out.

This doesn't help at all, actually. As I pointed out previously, I
*want* the mail through the list, what I *don't* want is people sending
list mail directly to me.

Are you sure thunderbird recognizes the email address you use for
posting as a local identity/account? Mutt has a specific 'alternates'
configuration to let it know what addresses are local.

Indeed, and it's exactly what I use when replying to list mail. The
issue isn't making sure that *I* reply to a list, it's asking other
people to reply through the list rather than to me.
Thanks,
