It stinks.
Your opinion is NOTED, but wrong. The list is a service to us provided and paid for by SuSE and they make the rules. Your participation is by YOUR choice. His Opiniion may be wrong but it is supported, at least by me and a 'few' others.
Asides since when have you pressed 'Reply to All' to reply to a message just so a list can get it and not the user who posted the comment? Remember 'Reply to ALL' means it replies to both the sender AND the list, whereas 'Reply' normally only goes to the original poster or list, if it is setup correctly. So the end point is either the 'Reply to all' folk put up with the extra message/download time/cost etc or the list moderators change the way the list operates so that members reply to the list just by clicking on the 'Reply' button. -- The Little Helper ======================================================================== Hylton Conacher - Licenced ex-Windows user (apart from Quicken) Registered Linux user # 229959 at http://counter.li.org Using SuSE 9.0 with KDE 3.1 ========================================================================
