Yes -- I figured that since you were sending duplicates, you must like receiving duplicates. As such, I used group-reply rather than list-reply. Whether or not I CC myself a copy, however, has nothing to do with whether or not I'm CCing a copy to you in addition to the list copy, however. > > Let's agree to disagree.

If you're going to use group-reply, please remove email addresses that ensure I receive duplicate copies in the future. In fact, I see that you've done just that with this last email of yours. Thank you. If you like, I will endeavor to remember to use group-reply so that you get extra copies, but I don't know yet whether that is actually your preference -- and I can't promise to remember it, since I'm sure you'd be an exception to the rule. -- Chad Perrin [ CCD CopyWrite | http://ccd.apotheon.org ] "The first rule of magic is simple.
