Steps to reproduce:

Repetitively press Delete button to clear out emails in Inbox (Thunderbird 128.4.3esr on Pop!_OS 22.04)

Actual results:

When there is a single email address (the case for most junk mail at least), the line of buttons is "Reply-Forward-Archive-Junk-Delete-More". When there are more than one email address, then the line of buttons is "Reply-Reply All-Forward-Archive-Junk-Delete-More". The addition of the "Reply All" button moves the Delete button to the right, causing the Archive button to land under the cursor. When one is working through dozens of emails, a bunch end up in the Archive folder. To avoid doing so, one must slow down and keep looking back and forth between the messages and the buttons, which is an unnecessary hassle.

Expected results:

The Reply All button should always be present, but be grayed out when there is only one address. That way the buttons don't keep moving around and messing up the muscle memory.
