In fact, cross posting is good.  The bad thing is that people on both
lists get multiple copies, and that's a mail implementation issue.
No, I don't know how to solve it (if it were easy, it would already
have been solved).  But we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that
people who cross-post often do it because they believe that it's
relevant to each list.
