Sorry, but the Mail-Servers AND mutt plus some others do already
the right thing.  I have "Reply", 2Group-Reply" and "List-Reply".

And all thre have the right behaviour...

If you use a broken Mail-Client, maybe it is time for you to get a
better one or ask its Upstream/Developer to add the missing feature.

Wrong, since IF I want to send a PM, I have to edit the message
and this bother me since I have to send over 50 PM's per day
byside 20-80 List-Messages.

This is wrong, since if Mail-Servers to this BS, no Mail-Client
Author/Upstream/Developer will change the current behaviour...

They have not a minimum on motivation.
