That's an interesting feature. It's not sufficient though: the resulting messages lack the full header of each message, so any reply will not be properly marked as a response to the original. The only way to participate properly in a discussion on a mailing list is to respond to the actual messages that were sent. And that's only possible if you disable “digest” mode beforehand. -- \ “Those who write software only for pay should go hurt some | `\ other field.” —Erik Naggum, in _gnu.misc.discuss_ | _o__) | Ben Finney _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
