How do you know? Did you ask them? I _want_ to get direct copies. In case people don't want to read mails twice they can tell the list "don't send me a second copy" or tell their mail reader "deduplicate my mail please". > This might also help reduce the number of questions with out answers, > when people have forgotten to put the answer on-list for everyone > benefit.

Based on the list-header, without an annoying reply-to header which was never meant to do want you want it to do. So dear list-admins please leave the settings as they are. Thank you.
