I'm only receiving the direct copy and I'm not entirely sure why. Given that the direct and list versions of the message are necessarily different in their headers, I don't know if Mailman regards them as duplicates or not. IOW this exchange is actually a personal conversation which is being copied to the list. If we were using Ctrl-L that would not be the case. > > > 2.

If it does what we've been saying then I guess so. I've not been reading code or recompiling Evo to check. I guess it's up to Matthew if he wants to accept the patch. I'm still holding out for the Reply To Author action of course :-) poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
