What do you mean by "reply mail addrees" ?
  Pre-selected From: address of reply message? Or "To:/CC:/BCC:" in reply? 
What do you mean by "wrong"?
  What should be/have to be? (Is there any official documentation such as RFC?) 

Following is only when you mean "pre-selected From:" in reply. 

> TB uses [e-mail] in the Reply-Mail-address

The mail has following headers.
> Envelope-to: [e-mail]
> To:  [e-mail]
In this case, I think pre-seleced From: of [e-mail] for reply has no problem.
What is your expectation?

If you don't use Global Inbox, and if the mail is moved to other account than account5, see Bug 327713.
(See accountN part of mail.account.accountN.identities/server in prefs.js)

If your "mail address in replying" is "the recipient address proposed", see Bug 377998.

Comment 3

[Werner Arts]

Above Headers are from a Mail I received.

Today I discovered that 
<[e-mail]>
is a further Identity from
<[e-mail]>

When replying, the Reply-to: adress should be used - if not available the From: adress.

In this case TB uses the adress from the primary Identity and not the given adress.

Reproducible: Always
