Is it? Hmmm. I thought all hooks worked the same way, but if it works 
for you, that's good enough. :)

That is exactly what I wanted it to do; I figure if I'm sending it to 
myself, I'll receive a copy just as surely as if I'm sending it to a 
mailing list that I'm subscribed to. But, that's purely personal 
preference.
