Sorry, I mis-interpreted your intention.

I don't think any of them could, can they?  Although some would get
darned close.

Indeed.  Sadly, my scripting ability is nowhere near good enough to

So far, not to the list, just the one, plus the Cc: to me.  I'm never
entirely sure why people do that.  I mean, I'm subbed to the list, so
why the need for a copy?  I'm not complaining, I'm just curious as to
why people do it, since I don't set a Reply-To: header with my addy in.

If anyone feels like answering that last bit, I suggest it's done
off-list since it's not a Debian issue at all.
