I agree that this is absurd.

When any email-user is using the reply action, they think "reply" means "reply
to sender".

I find it not logic that this auto-detection should apply when you do a
standard reply.  Wouldn't it be more logic, to let this auto-detection just
apply to "Reply to Mailling-list"?

As i understand, the situation is like this:
1: There is someone, somewhere, that has experienced a mailing list that behave
not correct.
2: This someone somewhere, uses the email-client in an odd way, where it fits
well with that "reply" means reply to mailing-list.

To satisfy this someone, the workaround is that the developers of Kmail make
kmail to work not correct. And the rest of the kmail users are suffering a lot
because of this. These users are getting a lot of problems with there
coworkers, because they are broadcasting emails to mailing-lists, instead of
sending messages to author. And the users are getting problems with friends,
and all kind of organisations and people around them, because personal messages
to the author, are broadcasted to the mailing-lists.
