Problem with Mail in Mountain Lion -- reply all function

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion in Mail when I hit reply all my email address is included in the cc line, so I get sent my responses. Any one else having this problem or know how to fix it? This didn't happen in previous versions.

And just like that it is fixed for me.


This seems to be more of an issue if you're primarily using an alias to 'reply all'.


The fix: Go to Mail Preferences. Under your account, add your alias after your primary address, separated by a comma in the “Email Address” field.

For example:

Email Address: johndoe@apple.com, johndoe@gmail.com, johndoe@yahoo.com

Name: John Doe


Try a 'reply all' from one of your incoming mails, and Mail should not attempt to cc you.

This looks less like a fix and more like a hack. Who would think to put multiple email addresses int eh Email Address field for an account. What if you have multiple email accounts? What you are describing isn't intuitive and can't possibly be what Apple had in mind.


Would it kill somebody from the Apple Mail development team to leave a message in here and say they are working on the problem or at least acknowledge it?

This is an Apple user site, Apple employees are not here.
