I think I'm going to have to blacklist any messages from Livio Cipriano. I just can't take any more of those annoying delivery confirmation popups that occur for each and every one of his messages to the list.
I'm not getting any of those here.

Email clients usually have a setting for this - always confirm, never confirm, or ask. I have mine set to ask and put up with the odd popup, though I think asking for confirmation from everyone on a mailing list is a bit cheeky.
I don't want to turn off receipt confirmation completely, since I want to acknowledge receipt if appropriate. I don't want to automatically send a receipt confirmation to just any unknown sender either, so I leave it set to the default of "ask", so that I know who's requesting a return receipt, and can acknowledge it if I so choose.
It just gets really old, reading through the list and keep getting the popup every I hit a message from this one sender. If nothing else, netiquette would seem to discourage that sort of email confirmation harvesting.

I completely agree with you. Say, if I hit the "confirm" button, he will get a notice right ? If all browsing through the list confirmed these messages, perhaps he will stop asking for them to do so :-)
//Sylvester I thougth about this too. But i think it only show weakness of kmail (i use kmail) that it is not able to set automatic/deny notification for one user. May be good point for enhancement. Anyway i do not think it is Livio problem, because AFAIK kmail could not be set not to ask for notification when sending to ML. Another good point for enhancement ;) Pavel
