So now the list is at fault when people choose to use e-mail clients that
cannot behave. errr. Probably, people should start thinking about to who
they send their emails, and what they send. Apart from me-toos, annoying
behaviour includes the out-of-office autoreplys (perfreably to the list ;-)
and the ~20 line standard disclaimer, which in itself is complete nonsense
on any mailinglist, and probably even in normal person-to-person e-mail.
Netiquette isn't what it used to be... :-)
