AFAIK there were serious problems with this stuff the last days.  It
could be that it works again now.  Older posts have appeared now
(including yours).

If I recall correctly, just r or R should already do the right thing
(the mailing list addresses can be retrieved from the messages' headers)
for replying.  I'm not sure how to replace a.  But hopefully things work
again now as expected anyway, so you don't need to do this.
