I have learned much over the 7 years or so I have been here, but it has not always been easy to wade through. We have all got those bounces if we have posted over the years, and I am just reiterating I agree with the present policy, and IF there was a change, THEN the first time it filled my mailbox with bounces may be enough to send me packing (I probably would wait til the second, we all make mistakes. Especially since with Linux you have the power to change things, I can be optimistic.).
