He did, it's just the mailman2 list software pulling tricks on us again.

The default setting for list subscribers is to eliminate duplicates.
That is, if you are subscribed to the list, and someone send an email to
both the list and you personally, then mailman2 will see that you are
already CC'd on the original, so it will not deliver a 2nd copy to you.
The trick is that mailman2 will also strip your address from the copy
that it delivers to *other* list subscribers. Those other subscribers
won't be able to tell whether the original sender CC'd you or not.

If you manually invert this setting at
<https://lists.01.org/mailman/options/edk2-devel> (it's called "enable
duplicates" or something similar), then you will get two copies of the
original email, one directly, and another from the list. (This is
generally the more useful setting, because you can file the reflected
copy in your list folder, and keep the direct email in your inbox.) The
trick is that in this case mailman2 will *not* strip your address from
the copy that it reflects to the other subscribers.

So now you can tell that Mike has duplicates enabled, and Andrew has
them disabled. :)

Thanks for that!
