That's a function of your e-mail/newslist reader. Some do not 
auto-detect lists, so don't present the option. (or hide it under a 
drop-down or menu) Others only offer a 'reply-all' option.

For some, like Thunderbird, they name that button 'Followup'.

So, it's on you to make sure you're addressing to the right party.

I don't ever recall this being a thing. Thus that would be a Request for 
Enhancement. But unless it would be really easy to implement, I don't 
see it appearing any time soon. And you have options to get what you are 
looking for as you noted.

I just logged in fine, so again, seems to be a user thing.

As for the bug report, it already exists from 11 years ago: 
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657530

But determined 'Not A Bug'.

It works, but maybe not as you expected.

It is arguable that the wording of the option should be improved, or the 
option should be modified in behavior, or additional options added to 
decide what level of account balances to exclude. (it presently only 
operates on top-level accounts)

Regards,
Adrien
