This is not addressed at me, but I also had to learn the hard way that - some gnu.org lists but not all automatically exclude subscribers if they are listed in To: or Cc:. - most gnu.org regulars do not make use of Mail-Followup-To: (or its use is not consistent). I generally try to Cc: the reporter on bug-* lists and on lists where I know the former happens. Regards, Ralf
