If someone replies to a mailing list and copies the sender then that
person gets two copies.  The above recipe avoids that.

If someone gets two copies - a direct one and the mailing list one - then
he/she knows that the sender has replied both to author and to the list and
can instruct the sender not to do it. With the above recipe, the recipient
doesn't even know about that.

Moreover, it breaks the continuity of threads on mailing lists, because it's
unpredictable which copy will arrive first, and if only the direct copy is
left, the reply will go only to the sender and not to the mailing list. Thus
some messages are missing from lists.

You CAN still reply to the list from the private copy, you won't have a
'Reply-to-List' opiton, because of the lack of list headers, but
'Reply-All' will still work.

It just becomes a bit harder to reply back JUST to the list. Your need
Reply-All and then editing the list of recipients.

Or you use procmail/Sieve to add a reply-to header to messages that have
the mailing list email in the headers.

It's silly to set up procmail rule to remove "duplicate" message and then
set up rule to add headers to the mail that are missing in one of the
duplicates.

note that it's possible to Bcc: message to mailing list so it does not
contain list address in To:/Cc:
