There are valid situations in which you'd like (or should) know if someone is on the list and would thus get a non-zero number of copies ;) >get a duplicate.

No, not that I can see (= unless gmail hid an additional copy somewhere, but it could also be that gmail consolidated the copies). >It's only a mail list, but it feels weird to make that publicly >visible. (visible only to members is essentially the same thing) I don't see how, esp. if you put the entries through a filter that makes them useless to people who don't already know the full address. And then there's additional potentially interesting info that could be recorded alongside: join date, location (if shared and as precise as the user allows), etc. I have no idea if the ML software allows this, but from the few forums on which I am or was moderator I know it's "nice" to have such information. I'd go so far as to say that it increases the sense of community.
