Wow!!!
Thank you for all that work. I have no excuse to delay, now :-)
For anything that is obviously not a bug, you are welcome (encouraged,
even) to mark them as such and to close them in the bug db.
I suppose you know how to do that? One way is to reply to the affected
message and to include something like this at the top of it:
Here's an example that merges two bugs, tags as NOTABUG, and closes.
forcemerge 7354 7353
tags 7353 notabug
close 7353
thanks
Or just send that text to [email protected]. Anyone can do that.
If you just want to close a bug, it's easy to do that with a reply to
the original where you change the auto-provided [email protected]
recipient address to be [email protected]
Thanks again.
I will take time to go through any you do not close/resolve within the
next few days.
Thanks again,
Jim
