Well, if it's reasonable to assume that everybody that posts to a
mailing list also reads it (which is the case on this list), then
there should be a way to say "never to any Cc'ing".  Which is what
`to-address' does.

For instance, this is from the head of your mail:

> CC: ding@ifi.uio.no

Standard `f' would have a mail go to me, you and ding, I think.  But I
really want to send just to ding.
