This is curious for 2 reasons:
1, I use TBird and can attest that "Reply List" doesn't always function 
(meaning: replies sometimes open in the editor with no 'To' addresses at 
all!), and
2, Using "Reply All" excludes the list in the 'To' addresses, so "Reply 
All" can't be the sole cause of spewing.
