Many, many years ago it was an attept to reduce spam and to avoid receiving copies of followups. There used to be a fair number of Usenet and mailing-list users who seemed to think that their followups were so important that they would not only post it to the group (or mail it to the mailing list), they would also send you a copy directly. I got tired of messing with procmail filters to try to eliminate those, so I finally removed my e-mail address from the headers. If people want to e-mail me, my address is below. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! Vote for ME -- I'm at well-tapered, half-cocked, gmail.com ill-conceived and TAX-DEFERRED! -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
