Oh, but that's fine, if abrasive. In fact, you seem to be using Mail-Copies-To and X-No-CC, and gnus does seem to support one or both of those. So that'll make it easy with your emails. Maybe Anthony Towns will add those; that will make it easier. Indeed, perhaps lists.debian.org should automatically add them. I'll file a bug. In any case, in-band transmission is surely going to be more reliable. Headers are mostly directed at email software, in band at users, so if you want the user's attention, a (polite) reminder would do the trick. > That's okay.
