That won't work either, because most people just do a general reply. The
only solution is to adjust your headers so that such a general reply does
what you want (of course that makes it hard for people to send direct
email to you). An amazing amount of bandwidth gets taken up by people
complaining about duplicate messages coming from such cc's, but it never
works to expect people to edit reply lists. Some mailing lists are setup
to do things right automatically, which is helpful. Of course others
disagree about what is "right". It is also quite easy to simply supress
the duplicate mesages at your end.
