Nothing you can't recover from in time. > for once i just used default setting in mail client (ximian) ......this > kind of crap Yes, Evolution is a pile of crap -- I agree. I still have bugs open against it because it crashes when it views certain mails; bugs which I opened months ago. Minor things like RFC violations take even longer to get fixed. > this aint ur list ;-) Indeed not. By the way, you misspelled 'your' -- and sentences are generally expected to start with a capital letter. Your own personal 'style' may seem cute to your mother, but it's not really particularly useful when you're communicating in a public forum. It just makes you look foolish. > > This list is a kinder (and hence noisier) place. > > > disclaimer is added by default by company server .....so there is > nothing much I do about it (if you ever worked in a big company ...u > know the stupid company disclaimer policy which is enforced on every > employee and added to each out going mail)....all i can do add my > disclaimer ...disclaiming the disclaimer below ;-) I work in a company which is big enough to have some of its own idiocy; in fact that's why my company email address is generally used _only_ for those emails which I absolutely need to be wearing my tinfoil hat for. Anything which isn't strictly company-internal is done with my own email address, which I know is competently run. However, I do have enough confidence in our legal department to be fairly sure that if some idiot in management wanted to add a pointless disclaimer to all outgoing email, they'd veto such a public announcement of our lack of clue. I know of situations in which companies which have lost contracts to competitors based on little more than their abuse of netiquette. It gives a _very_ bad impression. Especially when you see a stupid disclaimer -- the only thing it really achieves is to trumpet the cluelessness of the company concerned. -- dwmw2 -- fedora-docs-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-docs-list
