As I said before, it doesn't send to the list. Well, it shouldn't. If
you got the daemon's response and didn't send the original message,
then something is broken somewhere. Get me a complete copy of the
daemon's message for diagnostics.

As to ignoring mail to lists, I'm not sure that's the best idea. After
all, the original author wanted the mail to go to everyone on the
list, and that didn't happen. A warning seems appropriate.
