    Per> Use the `to-address' parameter instead of `to-list'.

Is there any easy way in Gnus to do the following?

- followup a newsgroup message to the newsgroup and send a CC to
the original sender. eg, if original poster requests a CC.

- when used with a mail2news gateway, and to-address is set to the
address of the mailing list:

Is it possible to send a wide reply to everybody, *including* the
mailing list? Currently, for wide replies, the mailing list does not
appear (because the To: and CC: headers were removed by the mail2news
gateway). Required for the same reason.

What I would like is some function that combines "posting"[1] and
"mailing" into the one command. However, perhaps I am on the wrong
tangent altogether. Comments anyone?



I think this is related to the mail-copies-to header
feature - does that apply to the Followup command or the
Wide replies command? What is the default when no mail-copies-to
header is included? Can this default be overridden?

I hope that what I have said makes sense to somebody ;-)
If people are confused, please tell me, and I will start
again.

Note:
[1] By "posting" I mean:
- posting to the newsgroup if to-address is undefined.
- or, mailing a copy to the to-address.
