I avoid this problem by not causing it.

Generally, it works quite well if you _only_ send a discourtesy copy
if the originator asked for one, or if other circumstances demand it.

This ends up bothering a lot less people.  When someone begins a
thread in news, they usually expect followups to be in news.

Courtesy copies are unneeded expect when explicitly desired by the
originator.
