I usually don't do that unless it has been explicitly requested, and
even in such a case, it ends up being more difficult as I'm reading and
posting to this list via network news (at news.gmane.io), so I have to
go through additional steps to send via e-mail too.

Also, I see you're using Gmail: keep in mind that, while Gmail (and
possibly also Microsoft Exchange) will try to deduplicate such copies
(possibly leading to data loss as this may mean you end up with one
copy, which does not have the mailing list headers...), in other servers
this would mean recipients would get and see two copies of the message.

Whether that is acceptable or not will depend on each one's approach to
mail sorting and organization.
