Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: V4.0 On Mac OS X small vertical scroller does not scroller is flaky

2013-06-10 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I was trying to help get the nomail version so that no email would be delivered 
to the person's email account.  That way he would be able to use Nabble as 
though it really was a forum without getting tons of irrelevant emails.  Sadly 
i think i misinterpreted what the "nomail" option does.  

Forums are on the cards but as an addition to the lists.  Then people can 
choose which method they prefer.  There already is something called "AskLO" 
which is a modern re-imagining of what forums could be.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

Hi :)
This answer seemed a tad more useful!  Yes there is a bug report and Alex gives 
the clickable link to it.

Hi :)
Please try to make sure wyattbiker is included in the CC field to all replies 
in this thread.  


Is there a bug-report about this already?  If not it might be good to post one 
before the big bug-fest on the 20th June.  

Regards from 

Tom :)
