The rationale for this is that on some lists that are really large in
comparison to list server power, for example dhcp-server, it can take as
long as a few hours before postings get out to everybody. CCing people who
are concerned with the current thread can make the discussion go faster.
Perhaps I'm lucky, but I've not noticed serious propagation delays on
this list.
BTW, anyone looking for a new mail program should give Mutt a try.
