Mailman is stupid. If someone is subscribed to a list, and has enabled the option to avoid duplicate mail from the list when they are also listed in cc, then mailman stupidly thinks it should remove that person from the cc list before broadcasting the message to the list. If you see [Qemu-devel] in the subject line, you got the message through mailman, and some cc's may have been stripped. If you don't see the prefix, then you got the mail directly through other means (probably through being listed in cc). Either way, I get the whole thread, but it makes it rather arbitrary whether I get replies to the mail through the list or in person, depending on whether others reply to their direct mail or to the mail they got through the list. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
