Your problem boils down to the fact that Thunderbird does not provide
any convenient commands to make use of that information. When I was
getting increasingly annoyed by this myself (with Mozilla Mail), I came
across the following Thunderbird extension:

Even without the extension, responding to the list is easy; it takes me
four keystrokes to do so. This is how you Tbird users can do it:

Add debian-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to your address book, and give it a
nickname like "debl" or something.

When you reply to a list message, select the e-mail address text and
type in "debl"; the nickname will be replaced with the list's address.
Or Ctrl-Shift-R and remove the poster's email address from the "To:" list.
