Look idiot -- would you please stop CC'ing me these messages?
If you are using such a shite MUA that your only option to
automatically get it to reply to the list address is to use some poxy
"reply all" function, please stop replying. If that is the case and
you just _must_ reply (we're all still waiting anxiously to see a
single sentence worth reading actually come from your keyboard) then
please edit the address fields so that my direct address is NOT among
them. Much as receiving your drivel through the list is a nuisance
waste of bandwidth and time, receiving a second copy of it direct is
outright annoying.
This list is "self-" or "auto-" moderated, meaning that it
automatically accepts message from subscribers' addresses. Thus, if
you post from a subscribed address (as you clearly do) there is no need
whatsoever to CC someone when _replying_ to their message as they are
almost necessarily on the list.
Please desist this stupid and annoying habit forthwith.
And yes, I deliberately chose to send this to the list as many others
here have the same habit (though getting duplicates of non-pointless
Email is generally nowhere near as annoying as getting two of GuidoZ'
rubbish).
Regards,
Nick FitzGerald
