The usual problem with this is that the CC hits before the list post
(less processng involved, faster delivery).
So:
- I get a personal response I don't want, and delete it.
- The list mail gets deleted by the dupe-checker, and I never see it.
In general: CC only on request.
Peace.

What Part of "Gestalt" don't you understand?
Ford had another Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster, the drink which has
been described as the alcoholic equivalent of a mugging - expensive
and bad for the head.
