Ah, yes, you're right.  I don't know how you can take care of BCC's (they'r=
e
_meant_ to be hidden, aren't they?), but here's the fix for the CC problem:

PROCMAIL_ALIAS_STYLE =3D """
:0
* $^TO_%(listname)s
| %(wrapper)s post %(listname)s

:0
* $^TO_%(listname)s+(-owner|-admin)
| %(wrapper)s mailowner %(listname)s

:0=20
* $^TO_%(listname)s-request
| %(wrapper)s mailcmd %(listname)s
"""

The TO_ is a built-in Procmail rule which expands to:

(=96((Original-)?(Resent-)?(To|Cc|Bcc)|
(X-Envelope|Apparently(-Resent)?)-To):(.*[=96-a-zA-Z0-9_.])?)

--=20
