Indeed. But I didn't say anything about removing the headers being a good thing, nor advise how to do it. > >Nah. He's right. Let's nuke the headers. Actually, I want to keep the headers (and I elected to read a virtual sarcasm smiley above). But now and then I do read a list with a Windows Eudora which is not set to suppress them, and I see the counter argument. (I suppress them in the Mac Eudora I usually use.) But I think that advice to comment out a line of code should be qualified by "if you have access to the Mailman installation and want to [do xx] ..." or something like that. Whether xx is nuking the List-* headers or anything else that requires a code change. Because of the archives, I think that's true even if it is known that the immediate recipient of the advice indeed has the needed access to make the change (alternate form: Because you have access to the Mailman installation, you can [xx]). --John -- John Baxter [EMAIL PROTECTED] Port Ludlow, WA, USA ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
