But what if it were a one-time thing? I don't see what's wrong with when the *first* invitation comes in, a pop-up comes up that says "You have received an invitation" with a "show message" button where the user could immediately decide on the message, as well as pull up the preference to set it permanently. The dialog could have a "don't show again" check box so it's something that only needs to be handled once. No surprises. I get a lot of mailing list mail, but my work-related stuff is mostly from Windows users who would not be sending me these notifications. I don't want any notifications from any of the mailing lists that I'm on. Yes, I turned off the preference after the first message. No big deal. But at the same time, I do see the point of those who are against this being a default. I'm not against the feature, I only believe the user should opt to turn it *on*, not find out the hard way that they have to opt to turn it off. If it's easy enough for someone to turn the preference off, it's just as easy to turn it on. And that's the last I have to say about that. -- Judi Sohn [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.momathome.com -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
