Reply all doesn't do what you think on this list. I added you to the CC so you would know this was intended for you as well as the list.
Nice change of subject though. My question was meant seriously. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Larry Gusaas [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, August 22, 2011 19:44 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [What?] Why and How did this reach my inbox?

This list is not a newsgroup, but the gmane newsgroup creates > the effect of subscribers without they're being subscribed here. Do some research. Read http://gmane.org/about.php Gmane provides an alternative to receiving a huge number of emails by making email lists available in a newsreader. For information on this group see http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.incubator.ooo.devel/ > Why should we be interested in that? Especially with those mangled subject > lines. What mangled subject lines? Are my subject lines mangled? Gmane does not mangle subject lines. Mangling is done by the user and the software they use. The same thing can happen to email as well. Why are you sending me a copy to my email address as well as to the list. I do not need two copies. Doing so is inconsiderate and contrary to netiquette. Don't do it again. Or do you just automatically hit reply all, a common action for MS Outlook users. _________________________________ Larry I.
