You stick your nose where it doesn't belong. I fully know permissions. In a shared environment not all users have the permissions to access certain'master' files. You do know what I mean by a master file. It is a basic concept. >please try to understand the basic principles of open-source software >(and while you're at it, there is a good howto by eric raymond on how to >ask intelligent questions, you might want to digest that too) before you >post again to this list.

Many sites use them. When you go to a site where you have to register you often have a check box to sign up to receive information from them. guess what? That's a NEWS list. You can't send to it. I fully understand how MM works. It works in a limited manner with little flexibility. >stop being obnoxious to people who donate software to you. get yourself >out of bed, learn python and contribute. or buy some guy that will >spoon-feed you the basics and whine to him. Obnoxious is the people on the list who answer damn near every question on here with a curt "read the FAQ". or worse. Often the FAQ does not say anything about the question asked other than "it can't be done". In that case the obnoxious jerk who replied could have easily made comment to the limitation, etc. Asking for help and making suggestions for improvements is not being obnoxious. Maybe in your country all folks do is take what they are given and move along never trying to improve things. That's not the way it is done in the rest of reality. You again make a poor assumption here that everyone who uses Open Source (whether by choice or not) is automatically a programmer. Funny how the users here are the ones whining when I ask a question whereas (at least one of) the programmers have answered (at least some of) my questions with real answers in direct mail. > >in the mean time, welcome to yet another killfile. Poor baby! Had your little feelings hurt so you take your toys and go home to mommy. Oh well it is asshole like you who should not even be allowed on the Internet. If you want to be involved in a conversation stay in it for the whole thing. Otherwise just shut to hell up and quit showing how childish and immature the little boys in your country are. > >jörn ------------------------------------------------------ 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
