Sure, the people there are generally very knowledgeable and helpful if you ask
good questions, as you have done. I'm also subscribed to debian-kde,
kde-debian, and a couple of dozen more lists for good measure. Be warned that
debian-user is high traffic. I expire messages after a week, and still have
about 1200 messages from there.

It doesn't sound too promising. That's surprising; I've always thought highly
of Thunderbird.

One would think so. Personally, I use KMail, which I find has excellent list
handling skills. In addition to the Reply function being intelligent, it also
has a function for only replying to the list. It would be a lot of work, but
you might be able to set something up with procmail or any internal filters
of Thunderbird to rewrite the headers of mails from mailing lists as a hack,
but I agree -- there should be a simpler way.
