It is equally bad manners, if not more, *not* to CC the list without:

1. Explicitly telling me that it is a deliberate private reply, so I won't
assume it was a human error of intending to CC everyone.

2. Sending a private E-mail instead of keeping the discussion on the original
mailing list where more people can contribute. See:

http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

about E-mailing in private, specifically
http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#noprivate .

3. After having solicited advice from a public forum, while not intending to
keep the whole discussion private.

------------

I have snipped the rest of the message, which was sent to me in private again.
Now please either be a good netizen and allow everyone to participate in the
discussion, instead of wasting my time.

Regards,
