Once upon a time Jon Lewis shaped the electrons to say...

No automatically, but they run the risk of being ignored. Since the techs
use 'filter' to sort the incoming mail into boxes, if you send it to the list
but CC support - filter is going to sort on the "To:" line and it won't go
into the support queue.

I try to discourage people from sending mail to the list AND to support.

On top of everything else, it is annoying. I also tend to ignore them on
the list.
