sending email with GAE copies sender — how to stop?

I'm using Python with Google's App Engine and I am working on sending emails to users.

I have it so users can respond to posts by emailing them. However, it also, by default, sends a copy of the email to the user. Is it possible to disable this?

This is the code I have:

   user.email(), # from
   greeting.author.email(), # to 
   'MSUchat: %s is %s - %s' % (user, response.inquiry, greeting.title), # subj
   'You received a response to your posting.\r\n\r\n%s wrote:\r\n\r\n"%s"' % (user, response.content), # body 

I only want this email to be sent to the person they are responding to, not have it sent to themselves as well.

From Wooble's duplicate:

You can't - App Engine automatically BCCs the sender. If you don't want to receive them, you could use one of your app's incoming email addresses as the sender address.

any other better way to get them to stop copying the email to the sender? I'm doing a "buy and sell" service, so users contact each other through email, is their a setting I can change possibly? –  user833085 Jul 16 '11 at 2:04
