Not from where I'm sitting... Here are the original headers:
From: Chris Elmquist <chrise at pobox.com>
To: gil <gil at baudot.net>
Cc: GreenKeys at mailman.qth.net
This list does not set Reply-To (it is an option in Mailman), so "Reply"
goes only to the sender, whereas "Replay All" (the default in most if not
all clients, unfortunately), would go to all of the above, resulting in
senders getting their own personal copies as well as the list copy.
These can be filtered out by client software, but they shouldn't need to
be.
I edited the headers to make the reply go only to the list; had there been
people there who weren't on the list then I would've Cc'd them as a
courtesy.
I also trim replies, and never top-post.
