This is a theological issue. Some people insist that since the recipient already got one copy, it is a crime against nature to send another. But some of us file our list mail differently from our personal mail, and find it ignorant and condescending to imagine that we don't want both copies. You can't win. Mailman makes it a per-recipient option. >2. If a mailing list is in the BCC: should a message be delivered to the >list: > a) Yes - always > b) No - never > c) Configurable > d) Convert it to a CC: You mean if the list's address isn't on the To or Cc line? My practical advice would be to reject it or put it in the moderation queue since in practice such messages are about 99.9% from spambots.
