| BTW, you can change your options in mailman so that you won't receive
| "duplicates" of messages sent to the list (i.e. your address and the
| list address and the list are in the address fields).

Except this means you end up with holes in the folder containing the
list instead of missing it from your normal inbox, which is probably
not what you wanted.

| Personally, I like getting CC'd. It's a nice way of knowing there is
| something I might wish to respond to on the list. I don't actually
| read them every day and on high volume lists stuff can easily can
| get "lost in the crowd".

Then use Mail-Followup-To to signal that.
