 PS, could you please just reply to the list?  If you reply to me
and the list, I get two copies.

It is presumptive to ask folks to not send you a copy, while others ask
for a copy, and most don't state a preference. They are all trying to
provide help which you requested. Fortunately, procmail provides the
means for you to manage this if it is a real problem. Man page
procmailex contains the following example recipe.
this.

:0 Wh: msgid.lock
|formail -D 8192 msgid.cache

There are variations shown and discussed there as well. This can be
customized for your specific situation.

On this list especially, I shall continue to reply and copy -- because
some folks write for help but are not subscribers, and because users of
procmail can be expected to handle their own duplicates.

But it is nice that you said please.
