Does the format of the line:

     Resent-Cc: recipient list not shown: ;

cause problems for anyone else?


I read debian-user mail in Emacs.  When I reply to a message, Emacs makes
a To: line of:

     To: debian-user@lists.debian.org, , recipient list not shown: ;

If I forgot to trim that odd part off the end, when I send the mail, it
fails like this:

Is the line

     Resent-Cc: recipient list not shown: ;

legal or not (per the e-mail specifications)?  


If it's not legal, could someone please fix the mailing list so that
it uses a legal addressing form?  (I know addresses support comments.)


If that is legal, is my mail server not accepting something it should?  




Thanks,
Daniel
