Hi all,
I am subscribed to several of the openmoko lists. When someone copies
multiple lists on a message, I get all the copies (usually 3 for some
reason). Worse, when anyone replies to the initial mail, they reply all
and I get another full set of mails.
I realize that there are valid reasons for crossposting some of the content
(particularly by core devs). Could I request the following?
Send one email to each list (instead of copying all lists on a single
email)
That's a bad idea for two reasons:
1) If the message was appropriate for cross posting, so is the
discussion. Else we get a fragmented discussion repeating the same
points in all lists, making thing worse for people reading all lists.
2) If it is the same mail it is trivial for mail software to detect
duplicates and remove them. If its different mail the problem get much
harder to handle technically.
