Probably because in many systems like Eudora, "reply to all" replies to all
the addresses in the "To:" line and the sender. The "Reply-to:" takes
precedence over the "From:" and is set to "classiccmp_at_classiccmp.org", and
the "To:" was also set to "classiccmp_at_classiccmp.org", it gets sent twice,
and Eudora is too dumb to scan for duplicates.
