Any mail client I know (but I haven't looked at many...) can do all of this
by "Reply All" (a button by that name in Thunderbird, 'g' in mutt, ...).

It's worth noting that vger lists have rules different to those in most of
Free Software communities: on vger, you're supposed to send copies to
everyone -- pretty much everywhere else you are expected to send to the list
only.  This is done by "Reply List" (in Thunderbird, 'L' in mutt, ...).
Such lists do add a set of "List-*:" headers that help the client.

If your mail client doesn't have "sent" folder, you can, of course,
follow one of these examples. But I didn't face with such situation
ever.

When initiating a post you should to specify "TO: mailing list" only,
without any other addresses. At least I used to initiate posts in such
way.

Thanks Ivan.
What about when initiating a post, do I do the same eg:
TO: myself
CC: mailing list

or do I
TO: mailing list
CC: myself

TIA

You need to do it in the reply only, not in the initial post.

> Does it make any difference where I put respective addresses, eg: TO: CC: BCC:
You need to put a person to whom you reply in "TO" field and mailing
list in "CC" field.

Ok thanks Ivan.

So I guess that means when I initiate a post, I also need to send it
to myself as well as the mail list.
Does it make any difference where I put respective addresses, eg: TO: CC: BCC:

You should reply both to linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org and the person
whom you talk to.
