Whether I reply all to the list mail, or the one directly from you, the 
resulting reply has exactly one copy of your email address and one copy for the 
list. I do not have an explanation why you are getting three.

I am not going to spoon feed you. I am going to hit the button that makes it go 
to the list. If that button makes it send 19 copies to you, I will not accept 
responsibility for retardation on the part of either a piece of software or a 
listserve.

No.

You have a problem with the combination of a list default behavior and my 
default behavior and are simply choosing to complain about my default rather 
than the list's default. Your position is illogical and obviously biased. I 
will not change my behavior. You can make a request for different default 
listserve behavior and I would support this.

The present one is retarded. You clearly don't like the result of how it's 
behaving, by default.

Suggesting a human should have to manually click on a field, click on your 
email address, and delete it, to appease you personally, is so incredibly 
asinine I can't even believe someone as smart as you would even propose it. 
It's pretty inexplicable why you'd ask a human being to engage in this level of 
parsing and effort every single time they reply to any email, let alone you 
personally. It's truly an arrogant and narcissistic request of enormous 
magnitude. The f'n listserve is improperly configured.

I have no problem with the email I send. You have a problem with the email 
received. Send all of my emails automatically to the trash then.
