What's not hard to understand is that as long as you're here, you have to edit
the To and Cc fields to only send to the list. The fact that you allow yourself
to send to the list *and* to the sender because you can't bother to reply
properly is your problem, not mine.

In which case, you still need to not be careless and put the list in To and
remove the sender from there. Because that's the proper way to do it when the
list software won't do it for you.

Wait a second, you are the one who is highjacking this thread, not me.

If you have something extra to say about System Events, I'm all ears.

If you don't, *you* are the one who needs to stop replying and sending comments
irrelevant to the discussion. Is *that* hard to understand?

If you actually took the time to check the thread, you'd see that I replied
separately on the relevant lists so as not to mix the discussions. Sending the
same message to 2 different lists where it is relevant is not "careless".
Replying to both lists when you know that you're not subscribed to one *is*. It
happens to me sometimes, in other places, I get my mail bouncing and I move on.

Unlike you who can't be bothered to properly edit the To and Cc fields...
