Regardless of those involved, I would blame the design of the user interface for the mail program. The program that I prefer _never_ automatically adds other names to a REPLY. The other one that I happen to use always displays a full list when I am composing the list, but still it would be possible to make a mistake. Computers are supposed to be programmed to serve the humans, not the other way around. Larry Kilgallen
