Apologies to list: Re: [Zope-PTK] CMF?

[Michael McLay]

Sending an apology message for accidentally sending a message to a list 
doubles the number of useless message to the list.  So is it better to not 
follow up to a message that was inadvertantly sent to a mailing list?  The 
first message may be confusing to some on the list.  Sending a second message 
just ends up wasting everyone's time.  In either case the person who fogot to 
look at the CC line ends up looking like an idiot.

Of course asking people on the a question in the followup just compounds the 
problem because it will probably lead to a useless thead on the mailing list.

Oh well, at least I didn't say anything grossly embarassing in the first 
message.
