I see, so email and listserves are soooo complicated rocket science that stupid 
people can't use them. Hmm, interesting design flaw.

Lazy != inconsiderate. You're making a request, I'm not obligated by any social 
protocol to agree to your request. I am not scriptable or automatable, and 
emails to me are not preferences in an application. I absolutely refuse to 
honor a personal request from one person to account for a problem YOU have. A 
problem not created or started by me.

> PLEASE STOP sending me two personal copies.

Pick one email address. Either reply from [email protected] or remove 
[email protected] from the reply to.

Who is being lazy? Make a rule and send all my emails to the garbage. I do not 
have a single problem with the bullets you are supplying me to put into my gun. 
Stop giving me bullets.

Right, it's incorrect to do a Reply All from an email that's in my inbox, 
honoring an email YOU SENT ME that contains *two* email addresses for you.

At least you admit the problem is yours. You want me to take responsibility for 
your problem and your emotional state. I'm simply refusing that premise.

Pick one email. Form your emails properly. Then my replies will be properly 
formed with one email to you.

I can make the same argument about you. You don't like me replying all to your 
emails you are sending directly to my email address. I will argue YOU should 
cull *MY* email address from all of your emails. And then I won't be able to do 
a reply all to your emails, because they simply won't exist.

I know where they are going. I accept that. I do not care where they are going. 
You do not like that, but it is not my responsibility to coddle your emotional 
state.

I have taken responsibility for my emails and I have no problem with them. You 
do not like that I don't agree with your opinion on the matter. And you don't 
like that I don't care that you have a problem with the result. Your problem, 
100% ownership is yours. And you are correct that I will not accept 
responsibility for your problems or your emotional state.
