I do have the footer with the options for "Reply to Sender" etc turned on. However, when that link is clicked, it opens in my desktop mail app and strips out the message I'm replying to which means I have to do a copy/paste to have the original message contained in my reply.
Those links simply have the wrong names. They should be named "E-mail to group" (or: Compose to group) and "E-mail to sender", but when I posted about this on the beta mailing list, I was told that if you send a new message to someone who previously sent a message to you, and you make the subject line the same, then it is considered a "reply", and so these links will probably not be renamed.
Most of the group members will just click Reply in their mail app out of habit - after all everything else works that way...
FWIW, I find that what happens when you press the Reply button in a mail program can depend on the mailing list -- sometimes Reply All does one thing, sometimes it does something else.
However, I agree with you that it would be nice if Groups.io mails were formatted in such a way that users have control over whether their reply goes to the group or the sender.
