When replying to your own email, account auto-selection does not work. Or in other words, please auto-select the right account when replying to your own email.

To replicate:

Preferences -> Compose -> Writing -> Automatic account selection
[x] when replying

At least 2 accounts configured:
1. a@example.com
2. b@example.com (Default)

Email comes in:
From: c@gmail.com
To: a@example.com

When replying, compose window picks the right account to reply:
From: a@example.com

Say you BCC yourself, or the email is to a mailing list and you receive a copy. This email:

From: a@example.com
To: c@gmail.com

Now, when you hit reply to this email, the account selected is the "Default" account, not the right account.

From: b@example.com
To: c@gmail.com

Aside: The To is picked so (rightly IMHO) due to a previously made enhancement.

The enh-request/bug is that when responding to one's own email, the right account should be identified and picked up. It should be:

From: a@example.com
To: c@gmail.com
