Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Hitting "reply to all" in Mail, my own adress gets included in the recipients …

… meaning I also (redundantly) receive the message when sent.

Kind of frustrating because I either have to go in and delete my adress from the recipients or delete the redundant mail I get.


Is this a bug or is there a way to fix this?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion

Just to clarify, if I have the email address of me@a.com and me@b.com, and I get an email from you@b.com which is sent to me@b.com, and has someone@b.com in the cc, if I hit "Reply All", the reply email is set up to go to you@b.com withsomeone@b.com and me@b.com in the cc.


This is your idea of clarification?


Yeah - an example. Steps to reproduce. CLARIFICATION.

Yup, this is an issue. Reply-all adds the one's own e-mail address to the recipients list.


It is NOT an issue involving any of the preferences.


It is NOT something that existed in Lion or earlier.


I've submitted a bug report to Apple.


Man, there are quite a few issues with Mail, from the formatting of the headers to this to replying-from the wrong e-mail account. I hope that we get a quick fix for these.

I have exactly all the same problems as described, since upgrading to Mountain Lion, and this is rather upsetting, time consuming, but worse, reply emails are sent from the wrong accounts, adding confusion.


When I recently decided to quit using Outlook, I was convinced that the integration and working of Mail was better on a Mac.

These problems, still not fixed by Apple, are proving me wrong.


Email management is not just another application, it is a core business tool.


Should I get back to Outlook?
