I read this as a pro for long cc: lists.

We neever before had any such problems. Currently these are caused
because some messages have 5 (or more) samsung.com addresses listed
on Cc:; for example, "[PATCH] The omap3 L2 cache enable/disable
function to omap3 dependent code" has 6 such addresses on Cc:
I doubt that this is really necessary. In this specific case, a
company-internal distribution list would probably be more
appropriate.
Best regards,
