I read git mailing list via GMane NNTP (Usenet, news) interface: nntp://gmane.comp.version-control.git as I respond only rarely. I start new threads using email, and if I get reply via email I try to reply also from mail client, not via news. However, when replying to message which I read only via NNTP interface, replying in news client, I have option of sending reply only to gmane.comp.version-control.git which means sending email only to git mailing list and breaking Cc: list. Another option is to copy Cc: list manually to To: field (no Cc: in this version of KNode), and have gmane.comp.version-control.git in the Group: field. The fact that there is no Cc: to set is the problem of KNode. The problem with GMane and vger interaction lies in the fact that I _cannot_ put git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in the To: list, as somehow vger rejects mails sent via GMane (it does not rejects news messages send via GMane). I could also copy whole message to mail client, but this would break In-Reply-To: and references: headers, thus breaking threading. Do I understand correctly that you prefer 1st option, namely replying only to newsgroup / git mailing list? Note that changing news client is as hard as changing email client: you would like to migrate configuration, news state (read/unread articles) and sent/drafts folders to new news client. Not that easy. -- Jakub Narebski Poland - 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
