Yes.

Yes, but some people have different opinions on this. I don't know why he wants
this, I guess because mailman also does it, or supports it when configured
accordingly.

I usually append them to /dev/null in the Fcc-hook and keep only the copy
received from the MLM. A workaround is still a workaround. Rather than setting
this in 100 subscriber-MDAs, it might be easier to have support for this in the
MLM.
Well, anyway, thank you. You have some valid points there :)
Best regards,
Moritz
