Please do not reply to list digests. Doing so has three bad side-effects, two of which are fixable and one not:
1) (Fixable): Most people don't bother trimming the reply properly so we end up with an entire digest being resent to the list (where of course it will be included again in the next digest ...). You didn't do that, but a lot of others do. 2) (Fixable): the Subject line has nothing to do with the topic, but is just a random digest title. Can be fixed by editing while composing the reply, but you didn't do this. 3) (Not fixable): breaks threading. You reply to a digest and restrict the quote to a specific topic. You even edit the Subject line. However standard threading doesn't use the Subject line but requires the use of certain headers which will not now be present. IOW your reply will not be threaded with the message you are really replying to, and of course neither will any replies to your reply. The thread is now broken. If you only receive the digest version of the list, you can reply to the specific message, and retain the correct Subject line, using Reply To Digest Message (or whatever it's called -- I haven't used digests in many years and it's only offered when looking at a digest). poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
