No, no, and NO.
When you reply to my messages, CC: me. I don't have the apprently
limitless free time you do, so I don't always read mailing lists every
day (or, for that matter, every week). I do read my INBOX.
If YOU don't want to be CC'd, set a Reply-To: if you want. That's
perfectly rational if that's your style. Don't tell me how to manage my
mail.
