Setting cc_followup=1 will not necessarily cause the message to be
Cc'd to the poster.  Here is what the documentation says:

  6.8.  cc_followup

  Type: integer
  Default: 1

  This variable controls whether slrn sends email copies ("courtesy
  copies") of followups:

          0  Never send email copies automatically
          1  Prompt if original poster requested a copy
          2  Send email copy if original poster requested it
          3  Always prompt
          4  Send copy if poster requested it; prompt otherwise

  The original poster can indicate that he wishes to receive an email
  copy by adding an "(X-)Mail-Copies-To:" header line to his posting. If
  it contains the keyword "nobody" ("never" is not covered by current
  drafts, but also accepted), the poster does not want any email copies.
  slrn will not prompt you in that case.

  When using settings three or four, please keep in mind that many
  people on usenet consider "courtesy copies" to be impolite because
  they do not want to read the same message both in their private email
  and in a newsgroup.
