I can see the sense in that for other lists, but one list should be excepted - this one.  From time 
to time one moves outside the box on moderation, either refusing a message or replying to it direct 
and skipping sending it to the list (e.g. about gmane problems and the like) and wants to notify 
the other mods what one has done.  On the other hand, I don't think it's necessarily a good idea to 
advertise the existence of a moderators' list, so I'd prefer to send to moderators as a bcc.

BTW I'm getting two copies of everything in this discussion except Sigrid's last post.  Is anybody 
else?

On the other hand, even though I have two copies of almost everything, I'm still not clear what the 
issue is.  I assume the secret is in the missing message from Michael (I think it was).  Can we 
have a resume of what the problem is?  Something to do with moderated messages and answers either 
not getting to the op or to the list?
