I have the following line in my ".emacs" file:


 (setq rmail-dont-reply-to-names
    "\\<info-\\|\\([@%][a-zA-Z0-9.]*:\\)?\\(bergman\\|mike\\)\\([@%][a-zA-Z0-9.]*\\)*\\>\\|<?@relay.cs.net")

The intent is to stop rmail from automatically appending my own name
to the cc; list when I reply to someone--the problem is that when I
deliberately cc: an alias that includes myself, I don't get a copy!
If I cc: myself explicitly, I seem to be find, and if I cc: an alias
on a different machine, I seem to be fine (i.e. staff@<other-host>.

Is this line the source of my problem?  Are there other hooks that I
should check the values of?  How do I use gnus to read my mail, and
will that solve my problem?
