Hi :) I think those lovely, wonderful people at MicroSoft run Yahoo so i have been thinking about moving to a different web-based email system but the choices are limited to things such as Gmail. In England there is a phrase "Out of the frying pan into the fire" which sums up how i feel about such a move. This whole question about top-posting has shown me 3 things
1. MicroSoft defaults are 'sometimes' sub-optimal 2. MicroSoft gives Freedom FROM Choice whereas OpenSource 'sometimes' offers Freedom OF Choice. 3. The list can't handle normal office users. The first point is not news; it's more 'olds'. Same with the 2nd point. The 3rd point is an unpopular idea in this list that leads to bullying and is just sad for an "Office Suite" list = it's an office suite for techies & geeks, not for normal corporate or mainstream office users. While people harangue or harass or bully me about stating this rather than considering why i might make this claim it remains one of the reasons that blocks LibreOffice and OpenOffice from widespread mainstream usage.

I thought this mailing list was about promoting the use of LibeOffice, an not of Thunderbird... ;-) -- Luuk -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
