There's a german saying for cases like these: People eat garbage, millions of flies can't err.
Never ever heard that "german saying" - and I am half-german, too!
BTW, CC'ing people when replying to the list either shows that your MUA is lacking valuable features or that someone should learn what list replies are.
Philipp No. Entirely NO, dear Philipp! I am on (counted) 18 OTHER mailinglists and this kind of problems concentrates on the mostly german Suse lists.
I read many lists in DIGEST mode, which serves me an overview. And I LOVE to receive an extra CC message if it was personal or alike. This way I can plainly see it. So this has nothing to do with "learning". Please leave out that arrogant tone out of your mails, big instructor. DOT !
If there are convincing technical reasons for... then I'm open to be instructed. Be instructed, Kevin :-)
It has to do with a matter of taste. Some love it (because it's useful to them) and some (most german) do not, because they have "learnt" it so on the old german Usenet parts which were mostly VERY bitchy on rules.
Me neither untill I saw it on the mutt-users list IIRC it was Sven Guckes who came up with it Yes Togan! Quite right. That's why TOFU is NOT English, but a GERMAN invention.
Example: At work, I got a leased PC, which has NT on and all admin rights disabled by default, so I cannot even change that damn Outsuck settings, so why would I be rude? I cannot even change it, nor install a different software. Sometimes, Philipp, I would love to see you looking a bit over the borders of your tables. Keep up that good work but sometimes not this tone nor attitude. Thanks! And, you serve you with German sayings: The tone the Germans quite often use on the Suse lists is a bit like "The world shall be healed from the German kind" (Wilhelm, 1911). Sorry Philipp, that I, in some way, got a little mad at you some time ago. But it was that tone. Please accept my official excuse! The tone makes the musik (again a German saying? hahaa) I fully angree to Sjoerd:
start with the essential part of the quote, and have your reply follow. It also gives you the opportunity to respond directly to several parts of the quote (two in this message, for example). THIS was a useful explanation! Thanks, Sjoerd! ====
And yes: I have fixed that on my private PC. :-) Hey Christopher! Take a break and laugh, do you still remember what you wrote last year? HAHA:
Yes, I was joking b/c some many people seemed terrified of the German Etikette list that I was just having fun with them...imagine the ml-admin wearing jack-boots and carrying a riding crop :) HOIHOHOHOHOHOH
