I have no experience on this with gmail.  I haven't subscribed to any 
mailing lists with my gmail account.

Thunderbird changed a while back so it ignores a Reply-To header sent by 
a mailing list and replies to the sender of the email... so if you just 
press Ctrl-R you will not be sending to the mailing list.  It is 
possible to get the old behavior back by disabling the 
"mail.override_list_reply_to" setting in the Thunderbird config editor. 
  I can't remember which version made this change.

Yes, roundcube can access gmail.  This is the config I needed to put in 
roundcube's config file:

$config['default_host'] = 'imaps://imap.gmail.com';
$config['default_port'] = 993;

My mail server cannot connect to imap.gmail.com on port 143, so I had to 
change it to 993.  I tested this by making a copy of my roundcube 
install on another URL and reconfiguring the copy.

Thanks,
