It is reasonable that replying to list mail defaults to "Mailing list"
as reply mode.

Sup does pretty good job being list aware.  I think the problem here
is sup failing to detect a list mail and treating it as "ordinary"
mail.  There are at least two cases when sup could (afaik) miss a list mail.

1) A mail which is sent to/cc/bcc a list member and the list so that
list member gets two copies of the mail.  Sup "sees" only the first
one to arrive, which most probably is the non-list duplicate.

2) A similar mail than previous but the copy via list is not delivered
at all.  Maybe the list performs delivery magic ("whoa, cc-header
shows that this list member already got the mail) or whatelse.

You can enumerate mailing lists to mutt and have it consider mails
to/cc a such address as list mails regardless of the precence of list
headers.
