Juha, that is because those other lists set the "Reply-To" header to themselves, in the belief that it reduces confusion for users who are using inadequate email clients. However that is a misuse of that header (because its purpose is for the writer of the email to specify a different email address of their own where they prefer to receive replies they want replies to go), so this list does not do that.

Gmail does not do any list detection. Gmail offers only "Reply" or "Reply-to-all" capability, like those other inadequate email clients I mentioned above.
