Greetings, Olav Vitters via dia-list!

CC whom? The list is set in such a way that it blanks the original sender.
And no, I don't have a habit of "replying to all" in public mailing lists.
I reply to the list, if you CBA to subscribe, I can't be any more helpful to
deal with you personally.

I prefer all my daily feeds in one nice interface. Not in a ton of different
interfaces each with their own caveats. Not to mention, I don't have nearly
enough RAM to keep yet another browser tab open just to get prompt delivery of
the news feed. I have my mail server which is more than capable of playing
fetch.

So, you failed to configure the mailing list properly and opted to use
something entirely different instead?
I wonder, what's wrong with Sourceware, Samba or postfix.org, if they are
still using mailing lists today. After 30+ years.
