I'd like to hear what RFC that suggests CCing the author of the email by |
| 12 |
default, please. |

From what I understand the recommended default reply behavior is to reply |
| 15 |
to only the "Reply-To" or, if that header is absent, "From" |
| 16 |
header. "Reply to all" to a feature that all MUAs should have, but it's |
| 17 |
used more often with large multiple TO+CC addresses rather than on lists. |
