Apart from the trivial answer "they forgot implementing it", you must consider the "nomail" feature (as e.g. implemented by GNU mailman), which, in essence, makes it such that you only receive mail *for subthread(s) you participated in*. That, of course, relies on the other party to not withhold mail from individual entities.
How do you participate in a thread which you do not start and cannot see since you have not previously participated in it?
* Download mbox file from the list archive. Open with pine, Reply. * Or, if no mbox file exists, make one. (In pine: compose new message, save as draft, edit externally to set In-Reply-To header, continue composing, copy-paste text to quote).
And this necessitates responding to "All" rather than to the list; you have taken the time to manually set "In-Reply-To", why not also "Mail-Followup-To"? -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
