REPRODUCIBLE with  en-US (German language pack) SeaMonkey 2.38  (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:41.0)  Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0 Build 20150923195647  (Classic Theme) on German WIN7 64bit:

1. In e-mail-client → Server "news.mozilla.org" → mozilla.test.multimedia → 
   click posting GTK3 / 2015-09-13 / Hartmut Figge
   » You will see sender "[e-mail]" and recipient "mozilla.test.multimedia"
2. 'rightclick that posting in thread pane → Reply to Sender and Newsgroup'
   » Reply-mail will be opened in composer
   Expected: recipients "mozilla.test.multimedia" + "[e-mail]"
   Actual: only newsgroup as recipient

a) I see some indication that this one might be related to or a DUP of 
   "Bug 77304 - Cannot reply to From: when Reply-To: field appears in header"
   But I did not yet find the time to do some tests also with Thunderbird
   under identical conditions, and it seems that in Bug 77304 there still
   is some discussion what the optimum design would be.
b) But Thunderbird 43.0a1 (2015-09-13) works fine for test above.
c) List of other possible DUPs: <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=DUPs860072&sharer_id=41036&list_id=12595438>

Some more investigation required
