    not to start a flame war: with header munging, it's impossible to
    send a reply to the author, unless one is really dedicated, and goes
    the cut/paste route.
    
    without header munging, one can easily:
    a) send a reply to the sender of the original message
    b) send a reply to the list (and to the sender of the original
       message)[1]
    c) whatever else you feel like

    [1] at the *original sender's discretion*[2]
    [2] unless you're MUA is screwed

    Since you use mutt, I don't see any problem. Just use list-reply.
