 ..another way is use procmail to drop the cc's home where they belong
 and weed out the duplicates.

I read the mailing list using the gmane mirror (turns mailing lists into
newsgroups), which makes this slightly more of a pain.  I'm sure it's
doable, but I just don't want to spend the time doing it.

That being said, most experienced users don't CC me, and most
inexperienced users end up CCing me regardless of the sig, so when I get
motivated I'll probably remove that bit ... it doesn't seem to help =)

 ..the third other way is chew out anyone who dares abuse _your_ damn
 bandwidth, _etc_.  ;-)

That is the approved way, right? =P

This conversation has been done to death several times in the past year. 
 Peruse the archives.  However, I'll give you the cliff notes:

It's against the CoC of these lists to CC unless the poser expressly requests 
it.  See bullet #9 at http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/ under the heading 
Code of Conduct.

All other considerations aside that is the document we all should strive 
to follow when posting to Debian lists.
