Correct me if I am wrong. If an email is sent to a list (such as the PDML), & you use "Reply List" or "Reply All", then you reply goes individually to all members of the list as well as the list mailbox. If you use "Reply", then your reply goes only to the list mailbox. Listers would then down load at their leisure. This explains why some posts are received double if "Reply List" is used - once from the list mailbox & once directly from the poster.

I think my problem is overzealous filtering either by my ISP or the Avast Firewall.

Hmmm.  PDML is the only mailing list coming in to T-Bird for me and I
have noticed that the Reply to List option is only available for
messages from PDML. For other messages it's greyed-out. T-Bird seems to
know that PDML is a mailing list -

I tried doing that but can't get the customization to stick. I drag it from the customize box and put it next to reply, and it appears to work, but as soon as I close the customize box Reply To List disappears. If I open the customize box again, it reappears, but never stays once customize is closed. Maybe my installation is corrupted.

I've had no problem adding "reply to list" to the Menu toolbar. I just dragged it from the Customize box to a position between Reply and Reply All. In addition, if you usually use the Reply located in the message header you can try this: Open the Customize box for the message header. You'll note the Reply List now says Smart Reply. Drag the Reply button back into the Customize box and close the box. The Smart Reply has now changed back to Reply List, but if you click on the down arrow next to it you will have the options to Reply List (the default), Reply All, or Reply.

I'm not receiving the original posts some PDMLers (Jack & Marnie at least) & have to pick them up in comments instead.
