David,
Here is an example... you might care to study the headers... its
because I (and I suspect many others) use MUAs like Outlook
Excuse and when corresposonding in mailing lists use the 'reply
to all' button which results in a copy going to the originator and
a copy going to the list, and as a result of the posting on the list
a further copy going to you.
I'm sure the use of the 'delete' key is an inexpensive cure for
this at you end...
