Well, if I could do that easily via the Yahoo Mail GUI I would too.

The problem is that there are two different addresses to the same list. Both
cygwin@sourceware.cygnus.com and cygwin@sources.redhat.com. The mail software
is smart enough to not send duplicates if the same address is used twice but
different addresses is a different story. Maybe it's time to stop the
forwarding of sourceware.cygnus.com to sources.redhat.com?
