I use gmail. I use the prefixes for filtering mail. I would not like for all of them to be removed, because they are so useful. It is unfortunate that the "libreoffice-xxx" prefixes are so long. For some lists I don't care, because I do not filter them. --Jean -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/moderators/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
