That's one reply I did not see. I have seen the article it links to, and
I don't agree with some of its basic assumptions.
To quote Markus
"This just replaces one set of problems with a different set of
arguably worse problems, shifting the annoyance from one set of people
(which includes John) to another set (which includes me)."
So no, it won't be changing.
If all email clients shipped by RH and Fedora were "reasonable mailers"
as assumed by Chip, I really wouldn't care so much.
I could almost cope if the version of mailman Red Hat's using would
gaily send me so-called duplicates, but it won't. I've checked my
configuration.
Whatever _I_ do, I miss replies others make. If you, Dan, choose "group
reply" or "reply to all,"[1] I often don't get it. I've never seen value
in off-list replies, except for very rare cases where, maybe
highlighting someone's ignorance might embarrass them, but they need to
be put straight.
I for one would be happy if my email address never went to email lists;
the fact it does is the reason I need to apply antispam to this domain.
[1] I don't see the point of those wrt _this_ list. Mutt users might try
L to reply to the list.
