I hate hate HATE dmarc and dcom. Depending on where you're sending your
message from and who is copied and who is sent to, a lot of times stuff
destined for the list ends up going to the individual he's responding
to. This started happening with dmarc dcom.

The only way I've found around it is to, on each and every message I
respond to, look in the To: field of the composer to make sure it's the
list, and if there's a CC to an individual just delete it.
