I guess you’re right and the presence of the List-Post header understandably makes Thunderbird think it’s a mailing list email. Probably a Reply-To header would suffice. The following is from [RFC 2369 - The Use of URLs as Meta-Syntax for Core Mail List Commands and their Transport through Message Header Fields](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2369) > ### [3.4](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2369#section-3.4). List-Post > > The List-Post field describes the method for posting to the list. This is typically the address of the list, but MAY be a moderator, or potentially some other form of submission. For the special case of a list that does not allow posting (e.g., an announcements list), the List-Post field may contain the special value “NO”. > > Examples: > > List-Post: [mailto:list@host.com](mailto:list@host.com) > List-Post: [mailto:moderator@host.com](mailto:moderator@host.com) (Postings are Moderated) > List-Post: [mailto:moderator@host.com?subject=list%20posting](mailto:moderator@host.com?subject=list%20posting) > List-Post: NO (posting not allowed on this list) --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/confusion-between-reply-to-and-reply-list-in-email-responses/179513)._
