Ah, I did not assume that the mailing list server is different from the
originating server. For me, the question *only* has sense when it is the
same server. If they are different servers, then there is no problem at all.
The *only* job of mailing list software is to resend the mail it receives
to list members. It should completely ignore recipients in "To:" or "Cc:"
headers, they are of no interest for a mailing list and they have already
been taken care of by the originating server, as you indicated. In case of
two different servers, you are right of course.
