Then you probably have set ignore_list_reply_to=yes (where no = default)

TFM (where M stands for Muttrc) says:

# set ignore_list_reply_to=no
#
# Name: ignore_list_reply_to
# Type: boolean
# Default: no
#
#
# Affects the behaviour of the reply function when replying to
# messages from mailing lists.  When set, if the ``Reply-To:'' field is
# set to the same value as the ``To:'' field, Mutt assumes that the
# ``Reply-To:'' field was set by the mailing list to automate # responses
# to the list, and will ignore this field.  To direct a response to the
# mailing list when this option is set, use the list-reply
# function; group-reply will reply to both the sender and the
# list.

Did you mean the "no provision for editing" is desirable, or do you
mean you would very much like to edit it?

I don't want to edit this header: people who are cc'ed probably aren't
subscribed to the list, and asked to be cc'ed (this could be my
mistake ;). Therefore, I think it makes sense to have them added to
the MFT: they want to know how the thread ends.
