The problem is that it seems many people have started sending the posts to people and cc'ing the list this now means that the list address is in the cc field and is a potential spammer. It may just be me BUT why not send to the list and cc the person of course if that person is a members of the list there is no point in sending directly to the OR cc'ing them.

Of course, breaking longrun-onlines is also standard, but not everyone
pays attention to that, either.  Different things irk different folks.
