Hmm ... that's a tad annoying ... I mean, I don't mind much receiving
an extra copy (Mutt deals nicely with copies), but looking through
the headers of that message, I'm betting he probably hit group-reply
instead.  (It didn't CC me; it CCed the list.  That's typical behavior
in group-reply, since it TOs the sender and CCs everybody else - or TOs
them after the sender, I forget.  Either way, the list won't come before
the sender in a group-reply, which matches the facts on the field.
In list-reply, the list must at least be TOed, and should probably
come before anybody else in the TO, at that ... facts on the ground
match neither.)

It's simple, Skyler.  You've seen what food processors do to food, right?
