Actually, the only ones I am interested in reaching are those who can
make people subscribe to this list before they can post.
Forcing people to subscribe before they can post is forcing them to
receive often scores of e-mails per day in which they are not
interested in the hope that one of them will be relevant *and* that
they won't miss their grain of wheat lost among all our chaff
And if they don't subscribe they will often not receive the reply that
will solve their problem because they are not subscribed to the list.
Besides, this list sets the Reply-to header to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If
I choose to Reply-all, the original poster won't receive my reply, only
gmane.comp.openoffice.questions and [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Then continue as you are and do not complain when some of the rest of
us CC the person who should get the information. We have taken the time to
filter our incoming emails into those subscribed and those who are not
subscribed.
Dan
I am not complaining about people CCing the original poster. I AM
complaining about people being able to post without being subscribed. As
I explained elsewhere, I can not filter for unsubscribed posters when I
use the Gmane newsgroup to receive messages.
There is not this problem on any of the Mozilla newsgroups I follow. To
post by email on them, you have to subscribe. They have none of this
unsubscribed posters BS.
