So that you get his response.  People sending email to this list don't
*have* to be subscribed, though it's encouraged.  If you prefer to have
replies go to the list and not to you, set the "Reply-To" field to the 
cygwin list.  That'll handle it.

Chris set the "Reply-To" field.  This is appropriate to allow clients to 
infer the poster's intent and route any replies appropriately.  I don't
know how gmane works in this regard however.  You may need to talk with
gmane folks to figure this out.

Sorry, it's not intended to be.  However, now that I pointed out the 
"Reply-To" field, I expect that helps.  No?  If not, don't reply to me.
You'll be confused again. ;-)
