On a mailing list, your readers' time is more valuable than yours, simply because there are a lot more of them. I am typing this message ONLY because I want to talk to YOU, and I want your address to be on its To: field, with Eric and the list on Cc: field. The recipients can prioritize their incoming messages by reading what's addressed directly to them first and when they have leftover time they can read ones that they are CC'ed, but because you used Mail-Followup-To: I had to correct the headers manually, which means you stole time from me. And if I didn't then your Mail-Followup-to: would have stolen time from the other recipients. Please don't use it on this list. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
