With Majordomo1 in its usual configuration, you cannot do this.  If you're
not using 'resend' and you're running Sendmail then you can set the "MeToo"
config option.

With Majordomo2, a user can send the following:

set listname noselfcopy

Majordomo2 is under development; developers and testers are welcomed.  See
http://www.hpc.uh.edu/majordomo/.
