I do this:

# selectively remap 'r' to list-reply (<ESC>R does a private reply)
folder-hook   . 'bind index r group-reply; bind index <ESC>R reply'
message-hook ~A 'bind index,pager r group-reply; bind index,pager <ESC>R reply'
message-hook ~l 'bind index,pager r list-reply; bind index,pager <ESC>R reply'
message-hook '~C g...@vger.kernel.org' 'bind index,pager r group-reply; bind 
index <ESC>R reply'

I had `folder-hook '=lists/'` too, but `message-hook` has
replaced that for me.  I may not need `folder-hook .`
anymore, but I haven't changed or tested it in several
years.

Kurt wondered why you'd ever want this to behave differently
per folder and, for me, the answer is that not all lists
have the same customs.

I want mutt to "do the right thing" when I start a reply
without having to change my behavior based on the list to
which I am replying.

I am using mutt because it greatly enhances my laziness,
after all.
