Well, these people apparently use elm or a similar mailer and its 'group
reply' function. With this, it directly replies to the mail address
found in the 'From:' line, and sends ccs to all mail addresses found in
'To:' and 'Cc:' lines.

I don't know about elm, but mutt has a nice feature to prevent this: You
can define mailing lists and use the list-reply function for replying in
public, which will just put the address of the list into the 'To:' line,
without any carbon copies.


Ciao
