Well then (said with wry humour), you get to wonder about these things, then... You also get to shoot yourself in the foot, from time to time. I used to do that, these days I use threading.

If I find that a few messages later my reply would be pointless, I can just delete it. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.15.7-200.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Feb 28 18:01:11 UTC 2018 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.

We also hard-coded the default settings that you keep customising. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
