Foe some reason, I'm only receiving one copy. Maybe a Gmail oddity? Or
probably gmail. BTW, i have .procmailrc rules to get rid of dupes....so if get CC-ed on a list reply, i see whichever one arrives first. This one deletes dupes: # delete duplicate messages :0 Wh: msgid.lock | formail -D 8192 msgid.cache These two rules store them in ~/mail/Misc/duplicates. # store duplicate messages in Misc/duplicates :0 Whc: msgid.lock | formail -D 16384 Misc/msgid.cache :0 a: Misc/duplicates
I prefer that if you want to reply to me direct, do so. If you want to reply to the list, do so. Doing both does send a mixed message. ;)
Different people have different preferences when it comes to getting dupe replies on list mail. some like it, some hate it, some don't care. I try to remember individual preferences as best i can, but mostly just default to sending either private or list mail, trimming the CC list. I always do a 'G' group reply in mutt and edit the To: and CC: headers manually in vim, because I don't always know until I'm ready to send the message whether it should be public or private. One of the reasons I hate From and Reply-To munging is that it takes that option away from me, or makes it more of a PITA than it was, or than it needs to be. craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
