Your MUA (mail user agent = e-mail client), even if it's only GMail's webmail interface, has _two_ distinct reply modes: reply-sender and reply-all. o Use reply-all for normal public replies on mailing lists. o Use reply-sender to send private off-list mail to a post. Obviously, your MUA will have its own name for those two reply modes, but those are generic category names. A few really good MUAs (such as mutt and Emacs GNUS) will automatically recognise when you are replying to a mailing list and strip non-mailing-list CCs by default. This is a good idea where possible, and in some cases (such as mutt) can be explicitly invoked by a 'list reply' command. But if your software doesn't do this fine-point nicety, don't sweat it.
