What a strange option. What good reason is there to - in effect - send
someone two copies of your reply?

Without checking, yes, I believe I can set a threshold number. I'm not
convinced I should, though. I think it might be better if Messenger Pro
was fixed so that it didn't have such a rude* button, unless I can be
convinced it is a sensible option, and that increasing the list
threshold is equally sensible.
* Speaking as a subscriber to the mailing list, I would consider it rude
of someone to send me a second copy of a reply I'm going to receive anyway.
