Why so many people who believe in the ideals put forward by the Neo/Openmoko

your mind if you let them.

I know you "mean it in the nicest possible way" as you say at the
bottom of your mail but this sounds rude to me.

Anyway, aside from that minirant, is it possible when sending mail from Gmail
to not CC loads of people in the meantime?
I'm not sure if this is inherent to the way the gmail client works, but maybe
someone could document on the wiki how gmail can be setup so it doesn't send
everything double?

You can't default that behavior. You have to click Reply to all and
manually cut/paste the mailing list from CC to TO.

I get CC's on mails I never sent, and it's not that big of a deal, but gets
kind of annoying having loads of mails coming in twice.

Talking about smart mail client, some (e.g. Gmail) are able to see
when two mails are the same and make it appear only once.

That's all meant in the nicest possible way, and if that's just the way Gmail
works, then fine - I can live with it.

That's not Gmail specific. Many client don't offer a Reply to list
option. It is just more visible as there is quite a lot of gmail
users.
