I guess we'd have to subscribe it, since we want the mailing list to be
included in the discussion.

Subscribe the person. I (and many other) filter my e-mail differently if
I'm subscribed directly, than if I'm subscribed through a team. The mail
that get sent to me directly (rather than through a team) get much
higher attention. That's the whole point of CC someone, rather than
relying on that he reads the mailing list.

Right, this is a tricky issue. Sadly, I think the only thing we can do
is to ignore the CC, maybe sending something to the one how tried to add
the CC, to tell him that it's not possible.
