As in a another post of mine where I mentioned that because the list is open then it makes sense to CC a poster if they appear to be newbie and you're not sure if they're subscribed. Also I've seen some posts where the OP has asked to be CC'd and subsequent replies have been to the list only. It may seem like I'm contradicting myself, but I'm suggesting that discretion is required. I have seen some threads where the OP has requested help installing Debian and there's been about 10 replies with requests for more information and the OP hasn't replied to any of them, doesn't it make sense to CC the OP in that case, just to at least ensure that no one is 'talking to a brick wall'? -- "If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." --- Malcolm X
