Thunderbird normally shows reply-to in normal messages...is this something that some MUAs ignore just on mailing list emails or all emails? Because I see reply-to on plenty of other emails.

Unfortunately I don't see a reply-to header on your messages. What do you have it set to? I thought mailing lists see who is in the "to" section of a reply so that 2 copies aren't sent out. The "mailing list ethics" guide I read said to always use "reply all" and the mailing list system takes care of not sending duplicate replies.

I removed your direct email from this reply and only kept the mailing list address, but for the record I don't see any reply-to headers.

But it's right there in the copy that the list delivered to me:

    From: "Bill Cole" <sausers-20150...@billmail.scconsult.com>
    To: users@spamassassin.apache.org

Whether you see it is a function of how your MUA (TBird, it seems... ) displays messages. Unfortunately, it has become common for MUAs simply ignore Reply-To. I didn't think TBird was in that class.
