I set Mail-Followup-To: on every mail I send to *@lists.debian.org. Most DDs just ignore it (though there are some exceptions) and this renders using Mail-Followup-To: to get a copy to be rather useless. There are examples where we lost potential future maintainers because they never received a reply to an RFS. These replies were sent to the list, but they were not sent to those requesting sponsorship. > Therefore perhaps > http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/#codeofconduct > could be amended to mention that adding a Mail-Followup-To header might > add an additional wall of defense for those who wish to cut down even > further the possibility they might receive a courtesy copy from the less > technically adept. I agree. If a message I reply to contains a Mail-Followup-To: set, I use it. If not, I guess if the person I reply to wants to receive a reply. To prevent me to Cc: you, you need to explicitly set Mail-Followup-To: to the list. Carsten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
