Nope, your text is about a mailing list without a Reply-To: header.
these 143 postings were inadversely sent only to the author of the post
being answered, because they forgot to hit "reply all" instead of
"reply".
But then your listing misses the 47 mails complaining about getting
mails twice, because most of those smart enough to hit "reply all" are
still too stupid/lazy to tidy the to/cc fields. (Everyone should only be
allowed to use mutt ("l" replies to list) unless they can prove they
*will* tidy the recipients!)
And then there will arise a discussion about procmail recipes to filter
out duplicate emails. Gladly this discussion soon will get it's own
subject line...
LOL! Thanks for digging this out again, Aaron!
