That's not something I would ever want, nor I suspect people who are
participating in a lot of e-mail lists. To each his own.

But more importantly, this just isn't how Usenet works.  You may be
using the e-mail gateway, but not everyone is. People coming from Usenet
are always going to be replying to the list in general, because as I
said before Usenet doesn't care about valid email addresses.  You can
complain all you want, but you're unlikely to have replies going to your
email inbox *and* the list folks reply from Usenet.  I myself will
almost never reply intentionally to the person and also the list.
Duplicated emails just annoy people. And they screw up Gmail's filters
on my own account.  Of course that's mainly because Gmail is pretty
stupid when it comes to dealing with mailing lists and they refuse to
fix it.
