I do understand this, contrary to what you say. I made the point that it's better to use Reply with appropriate editing than to compose an entirely new message. Why?

Since neither method preserves threading there's nothing to distinguish them in this regard. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
