Yesterday I inadvertently sent two copies of a message to this List,
and for that I apologize.
Such duplication happens because when I want a reply to a List
message to go to the List (rather than just to the person who
originated it), I have to start with Reply All. That has the
unfortunate side effect of putting the List address in both the TO
and CC fields, probably because the List address appears in both the
TO header and the Sender header of the message to which I am
replying. (The originator's address appears in the From header of
List messages, as you will know if you are not a customer of AOL.)
So if I forget to edit the address fields after doing Reply All, you
all suffer.
Again, my apologies for that; I'll try to do better in the future.
Carl
