Adam & Aaron,

the "norm" on the FreeBSD lists is, AFAIK, to always Cc: the original
poster.  The rationale behind this is that the lists are open to anyone
and it's not easy to remember by heart who is already a subscriber.

Fortunately, for those who hate duplicate messages, one can use
Mailman's options to avoid duplicate messages:

    [ http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-chat ]

    Avoid duplicate copies of messages?

    When you are listed explicitly in the To: or Cc: headers of a list
    message, you can opt to not receive another copy from the mailing
    list. Select Yes to avoid receiving copies from the mailing list;
    select No to receive copies.

    If the list has member personalized messages enabled, and you elect
    to receive copies, every copy will have a X-Mailman-Copy: yes header
    added to it.

    ( ) Yes
    (*) No

    [ ] Set globally

I hope this helps :)
