In the past, hitting Reply on an email list replied to the list, but in 52.1.1, the reply goes only to the sender, so i have to use reply-to-list: why?

Older folk like me still use email lists, and I use two in particular, one running on Mailman, the other in Google groups. In each case, "Reply" has always sent a reply to the list, but now it goes to the sender. "Reply to the list" goes there, but we older folk are creatures of habit: can this "fix" PLEASE be undone?

Interestingly, this morning, the 'Reply List' option was missing, but it now seems to be back again. I suspect that is unrelated to starting in safe mode.
