Or, if you don't have such a good email client, see the "eliminatecc"
subscription option offered by our majordomo server.
A further tip: if you don't like getting multiple copies of messages
that are cross-posted to multiple lists, you can tell the majordomo
server
set ALL unique
"help set" will extract a pretty useful description of all the options
majordomo supports (there are a lot of 'em these days).
