Sorry, I had that reversed
clicking Reply All: puts gnucash-user at lists.gnucash.org <mailto:gnucash-user at lists.gnucash.org> in the cc: field, and the sender in the To: field.

Adrien,
For your reference, in the MacOS Mail.app:
clicking Reply: puts the sender in the To: field
clicking Reply All: puts gnucash-user at lists.gnucash.org <mailto:gnucash-user at lists.gnucash.org> in the To: field, and the sender in the cc: field.
Usually what I do is hit 'Reply All', delete the sender from the To: field and drag gnucash from cc: to To:.
Regards,
Will

I'll add Mail.app on MacOS to the list. The 'From:' header has a down arrow to the right of the address. (visible on hover) Clicking it brings up a context menu with 'New Mail' as an option. (There is also a 'Copy Address' option if one prefers) As well, any address in the body of a message has the same options.
Not certain about Mail.app on iOS, but I'd suspect there is a similar feature.

Adrien
