How to have always enabled the Reply All button (and to have simple Reply disabled), to avoid mistakes...

Hi.

I have Thunderbird 78.7.1 (64-bit) installed in my PC (Windows 10 Pro 20H2 64-bit). I am using Thunderbird for years (thanks Mozilla for such a powerful application!).

As the title says, I would like to have only the "Reply All" button enabled and to disable the simple "Reply" to avoid mistakes. Many times I want to Reply to All on an E-Mail message, but by habit, I am mistakenly pressing the simple "Reply"...

Therefore, how can I achieve this (custom) behavior?

For the Header Pane, this add-on can show or hide the buttons:

For the Mail Toolbar, right-click the bar, Customize..., drag the Reply All button onto the toolbar.
