This is odd behavior but i don't think this is serious enough to block on since it is not a regression.

There are two cases being reported here.  Our example message is a message sent to Alice in the sent folder by Bob.  (The fact that the message is in the sent folder is notable but arguably does not matter.)

1) Normal/sender reply results in a message to Bob from Bob, which is indeed nonsensical on our part.  Thunderbird handles this by generate a message "to" all of the original "to" recipients which is how I'll address this for now, but may make sense to revisit in the future.

2) Reply all results in a message to Alice from Bob.  This bug is asking for Bob to also end up on the recipient list, but I just did a quick survey of Thunderbird, Gmail's web UI, Yahoo's web UI, and outlook.com's web UI and all of them do the same as us here.

So the problem case is the first case.  The second case is already doing the right thing.


I'm addressing this on the convoy branch, so assigning to me for some level of clarity.
