Actually CC to the sender is the norm on this list. I believe there
is a majordomo command that will cause it to change the reply to all
headers such that you won't get the CC.
The reason for the CC to sender is that someone may be reading the
list who isn't necessarily subscribed to it, from such things as being
CC'd from another list, etc...
If they replied only to the list, you might not see their reply for
several hours while it was being moderated.
More info available by sending an email to majordomo@postgresql.org
with help in the body...
