Well, if I could do that easily via the Yahoo Mail GUI I would too.

The problem is that there are two different addresses to the same list.  Both
cygwin AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com and cygwin AT sources DOT redhat DOT com.  The mail software
is smart enough to not send duplicates if the same address is used twice but
different addresses is a different story.  Maybe it's time to stop the
forwarding of sourceware.cygnus.com to sources.redhat.com?
