That works, but at the expense of the recipient getting two copies, which
many find tiresome. The 'List reply' button is much better (as used here
:-), but some mailers are too crummy to have one (and some users too
dumb/ill-informed/lazy to use one when provided).

James - I assume you know about setting the 'Mail-Followup-To:' header to
avoid getting two copies when people 'reply to all'. Again, mail client
support is patchy so it only works some of the time but it certainly helps.
