I'm not quite sure, if I understand that. All I understand now is, there's something wrong with that version I've installed. There's no maintainer and it seems nobody will repair it. Perhaps it was not a good idea to install an unstable version, there won't be a stable one, I assume. >> >> P.S.: Is it possible to set an In-Reply-To header in this list? >> > > It looks like we can do things with a "Reply-To" header, but don't. > (I'm not sure if that is the same as In-Reply-To) Sorry, yes. That's what I was thinking of. A Reply-To header would make this list much more comfortable. hs ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
