The problem is, 'reply-all' doesn't just reply to the list. It also does 
different things depending on your client.

For example, with Thunderbird, 'Reply-All' will reply to the author of 
the message and CC the list. So, the author gets two copies.

I agree it's not such a big deal _IF_  you know what is happening with 
you particular client.

Cheers,
Mike.
