Press R while reading a message, or click the Reply button at top of
kmail/kontact or right click in the message window and select Reply,

You will occasionally see your own address in the TO field.  
This happens even more frequently if Your name matches the original sender's
name (such as when I send to my work account from my gmail account, both have
the same name, but different email addresses. 

However, I have seen this when the names differ wildly.
Reply-to-Author gets it right always, but simple Reply will some times get it
wrong.



Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Send a mail to yourself from a different Email Account but the same user
name
2. Reply to with the R key in Kmail
3. Play with it, because it doesn't happen all the time.
Actual Results:  
R/Reply/Context-Reply should reply to Sender (assuming a mailing list is not
involved).

Expected Results:  
Sometimes the Reply address is set up to go to the account from which you are
replying.

The image shows:
I'm reading a gmail mailbox.
Reply window is setting on top of the message in the Reading window.
It came from screenio.com.  To Gmail.com.

R was pressed to compose a reply.

Reply should have been set up to go to Screenio.com
but in fact it was set up to go to gmail.com
