Note that from the situation, most likely "bbcnews" *is the list*.
Justin doesn't say enough to be sure, but if so that's a one-step mail
loop.  I'm pretty sure that's the situation Mark has in mind.

Your solution is fine for human posters, but the cost of inadvertantly
turning on delivery to the bbcnews address is "Sorcerer's Apprentice"
levels of annoyance!  It's up to Justin, of course, but I'm with Mark,
it's not worth the risk.
