List etiquette is to cc the sender and anyone actively involved in the discussion. Some people don't like this and they set their reply-to header appropriately. Respect this.
It is rarely appropriate to cc multiple lists. Sometimes it is. In that case, do so. If in doubt, don't; just choose the single most appropriate list.
When replying to others, please don't top-post and trim the existing text to quote only the sections you're actually replying to. See [[!wikipedia Posting_style]] for further reading, especially [[!wikipedia Posting_style#Interleaved_style]].
Also see these general notes about [[community/communication]].
Most of these lists are [[unmoderated]], and most of them are hosted on http://lists.gnu.org/.
Some of the Hurd user groups listed on [[community]] also host additional mailing lists.

GNU mailing lists used to have no spam filtering applied -- everyone was allowed to post, the lists were completely unmoderated. This resulted in getting the lists spammed very much, as you can see in the web archives. If you're interested in getting hold of (mostly) spam-free mboxes, then talk to [[Thomas_Schwinge|tschwinge]]. Also [[read_about|unmoderated]] the spam-rejection techniques being used today.
