Others object, more reasonably IMO, to being *dropped* from the conversation. Being cut out completely is much worse than getting two copies of the message. Lost information cannot be regained; redundant information can be handled relatively easily. See http://david.woodhou.se/reply-to-list.html which explains the background and the configurable behaviour of Evolution's Group Reply button — and why you shouldn't change it from the default. -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
