Karl,

This depends on how the user replies to your email.
Some people reply as a common practice; since some people post to lists 
they may not be a member of and CC the original poster as well as the list.
This does two things:
    (1) Allows the original poster to get the answer they want.  If not 
a member of the list.
    (2) Allows the list to get the answer as well.
