It is definitely not the first thing I find amusingly "different" in 
the Eclipse project!

Thanks for the clarification. I guess I will just delete emails directed 
to me from time to time, by mistake, because when I am short on time, the 
emails not addressed to me personally must go first, unread.

My guess is that nobody in the Eclipse community gets more than 30 mails a 
day. At least, it is hard to believe that they would continue this Cc: 
culling practice if they approached the number of emails I have to cope 
with every day.

Thanks,
Dscho
