Okay, thanks. I'll talk with the others here and decide what to do. > I've learned a lot in the last 7 years ;) > > The reason is to keep the Cc: list from growing excessively long in long > threads involving many people (see the subsequent post(s) in that thread). Yeah, I saw that, but I don't care how long the Cc list gets. I would rather allow people to filter aggressively and not worry about missing posts that may be relevant to them. It's common on other lists (evidently not those managed by mailman, vger.kernel.org is a high-profile example) to by convention, always Cc everyone that is likely to be interested. Asking recipients to write rules in terms of thread ancestry isn't sufficient either: when we later do more work that is somehow related, we might start a new thread and Cc everyone from prior threads that were related. If the list chronically drops Cc, it can be hard to figure out everyone that should be Cc'd in a new topic. Anyway, can I interpret your response as being that mailman always drops Cc and there is no configuration option? ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
