I have this in the Group Parameters of the newsgroup fa.info-cvs at
news.eunet.no, which is gated from the info-cvs mailing list at some
point:

((to-list . "info-cvs@prep.ai.mit.edu")
 (to-address . "info-cvs@prep.ai.mit.edu"))

I don't know why or even if I need both to-list and to-address (it's
so long since I did this), but it seems to work.
