Then you need to do something to appease your annoyance. Those of us
replying to your email are simply replying to all. If you want to insure
that you get 1 message only in that case, change your "Reply-To:" field
on messages you send to the list to cygwin@cygwin.com (or some similar
address). Doing so will allow anyone to respond to your messages without
annoying you with two copies. This is actually your best defense against
this kind of thing. If after this you still get two copies, its because
someone is physically adding your name to the list. At that point, it may
be appropriate to lambaste the sender.
