Could you PLEASE change the subject?
What *ARE* you talking about?!
:-)
Change the subject field of the email so that it is known that you are talking about of something different than the first post of the thread, which is created by a robot.
That is, instead of naming the post "[opensuse-factory] New Tumbleweed snapshot 20180127 released!", name it "BULB!" or something so that people know.
This is in fact a request that is made on every such robot post:
When you reply to report some issues, make sure to change the subject. It is not helpful to keep the release announcement subject in a thread while discussing a specific problem.
HTH :-)
No, it doesn't help me at all.
I was responding to what Patrick wrote and there are some 8 or so posts before his so any requests to alter the Subject should have been made earlier.
It's never too late: every sinle person replying to a mail thread has the capability to change the subject to give insight about the topic of the mail. The fact that you were just the last sender is merely a coincidence and I am sure the request to change topic was not explicitly targetted at you - but at all writers in this thread. Cheers, Dominique
