Now *this* is why I think the guy who wrote "Reply-To Munging Considered
Harmful" is full of it. If replies aren't set to go back to the list,
people just hit "group reply", and sends a message to the author, cc'ed to
the list and an ever growing list of other people on the cc list from
previous group replies. But when it came to a vote on this list, I was
shouted down, so learn to live with duplicate messages, or screen them out
with procmail and formail.

SCSI is *NOT* magic. There are *fundamental technical reasons* why it is
necessary to sacrifice a young goat to your SCSI chain now and then.
