When replying to messages on the mailing list, do not send a carbon copy (CC) to the original poster unless they explicitly request to be copied." We live in the year 2006, a few bytes wasted in the footer of a mail don't hurt anymore, but everybody is flooded with information and attention is a spare ressource. If you send a mail cc: to a list and to me, it will catch my attention even if I have none. Please don't. Unless you specifically want to catch my attention of course :) But If I don't say otherwise, I'm subscribed to the mailinglist (and this is true for non-Debian lists as well) and you don't need to cc: me. Thanks.
