However, there may be much more information that should be included. As an example, one might want some kind of automatic "seeding" of a part of the message based on the content of the message referenced Another possibility would be a way to avoid extending some of the links from a multi-linked message. I don't know enough about the details avail to attempt to provide a more precise description. However, we need to keep the "level of integration" issue open until someone (presumedly the student) completes an inventory of reasonable possibilities. I was contrasting that situation with another which simply provides an authenticated submission of a message. My point is that these two (and others) need not be mutually exclusive. _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
