I define a function that reverses the sense of rmail-reply's argument:

    (defun rmail-reply-no-cc (cc-to-everyone)
       "Reply to the current message.
Normally don't CC: to all other recipients of original message;
prefix argument means CC: to them."
       (interactive "P")
       (rmail-reply (not cc-to-everyone)))

and then bind the following keys:

    (define-key rmail-mode-map "r"  'rmail-reply-no-cc)
    (define-key rmail-mode-map "R"  'rmail-reply)

I prefer the lower-case "r" to be rmail-reply-no-cc since that's what I
usually want as my default.  I then use either "C-U r" or just "R" to get the
CC's when I want them.  [This should probably be the default in RMAIL instead
of the other way around.]
