Hi Jeroen,

I forwared your message - not replying to show your headder:

From: Jeroen Massar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: Keith Moore <[email protected]>
Cc: [email protected]

So you had sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[email protected] received only a copy. Some people might have got nothing.

My own Mozilla/Thunderbird behaves the same way:

I would have had to manually change to/cc for all recipients.

That is what we all need to do now if I got it correctly.

No, what needs to happen if we collectively decide we don't want the current behavior is that the mailinglist software sets a "reply-to" header, so when you hit "reply" or "group reply" your reply is sent with the list in the "To:" field and nothing else. This used to work well, not sure if modern clients handle this correctly, though. Try to reply to this message to see what happens.

(BTW I got so fed up with receiving endless CCs for each discussion thread I've ever posted to (you can actually manually remove those, people!) that I now have procmail remove all messages with duplicate msgids.)
