Having just finally got my head round these:

You have two scrips which trigger on 'comment'.  One sends to AdminCCs and
the other sends to OtherRecipients - which are those addresses specified
on the CC or BCC lines in the web reply/comment form.

For CCs to see comments you would need to have:

OnComment NotifyCcsAsComment with template Correspondence

as well.  Now in my basic RT, I don't have that ScripAction (or
NotifyCcAndAdminCcsAsComment which would do here) so you'll have to insert
suitable lines into the database to create it. (all the Notify actions are
calls to Notify.pm or NotifyAsComment.pm with suitable arguments).
