Pretty much nobody on the list is going to know exactly how you set up
your filter that moves list messages to the label.

As a Gmail user I am using a filter like this:

Matches: list:"help-gnu-emacs.gnu.org"
Do this: Skip Inbox, Apply label "emacs", Never send it to Spam, Never
mark it as important

and if yours is any similar, I’d expect you’d want to add a condition
“and To: or CC: does not include <your address>” and then ask people
to add you to To or Cc in replies addressed to you. (Optionally, a
second filter for messages to the list *and* you, to apply label but
not skip inbox.)
