Wow. I'm a gmail nerd and I didn't even think to try that! It Cc's the
list automagically that way!

FWIW, having the list "reply to" set to the sender's name has the
benefit that when the list gets "Wallaced", the individual "wallaces"
only bounce back once to the original sender. If gerry was set to put
"vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com" there, the wallaces would bounce back to
the list server "reply" address instead, which would send the bounce
out to the whole list, triggering another wallace message that gets
sent to the list-- lather, rinse, and repeat until someone comes along
to stop the cascade of self-perpetuating wallaces.
