I hope this is not a bad habit, I'm guilty. How could this prevent us
from receiving mail from the list?
What Leendert is suggesting is that the mail from Andreas and Matthias
(both from SuSE) was cc'd to Basil, as well as posted to the list (this
is in fact the case with Andreas's msg that Basil referred to). Thus
Basil would have seen the copy Andreas sent directly, and not received
the list copy until later.

Whether or not it's a bad habit depends on who is receiving the mail --
some people will scream until they turn blue if they receive a cc of an
email sent to the list. I do not know if they yell at Andreas when he
replies to one of their messages -- I think it would not be in good form
to yell at a SuSE guy on *this* list :-)
