BULL SHIT Linda. Use the fracken "Reply List" button that Thunderbird offers you. YOU have been on this list long enough to know the list preferences, use them. === Bull poop yourself Ken!. I don't have such a button -- read the standards (the ones I quoted in my followup... ignore the Reply-To nonsense.. I was wrong). But the 2 copies -- is a reader-issue, not a sender issue -- sender is supposed to send 2 copies on reply 2 all or it can cause lost email.

Getting two copies of the same email ------------------------------------
Because you are to fucking lazy to delete one, period!
Exactly... That's what the standards say: Some people complain that they'll get two copies of the same email. Fortunately, there's already a technical solution to this. Since all mail clients put a unique Message-ID header field on their email, a mail reader has only to compare the Message-ID of a message to previously-recieved messages. If it's the same, then the second message is a duplicate and can be safely ignored. If your mail reader doesn't do this, that's too bad, but it's not an excuse to violate Internet standard and surprise people with inconsistent behavior, just to prevent you from having to delete a few emails.Anyone who gets any spam at all knows how to delete email. I'm not so lazy I can't deal with the rules -- I wrote programs to deal with duplicate copies based on whatever rules I want. It seems you are the lazy one who can't be bothered to write a filter to drop duplicate messages. If any given user DOESN'T want to recieve two copies, then they can put reply-to in the metainfo for that folder. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
