I am reading and writing on a number of mailing lists with either explicit or implicit gateways to news servers. But the git mailing list is the only one where I ever encountered a semi-permanent stream of (sometimes quite rude) complaints because people insist on getting replies at least twice: once by the mailing list, and once by personal Email. In contrast to claims made here, it is _not_ common netiquette to create extra personal copies. In fact, for articles sent through Usenet servers, it is generally considered an _annoyance_ to include unannounced "courtesy copies" since replies to them will not usually reach the list and will require redoing. And I have received complaints about accumulating Cc lists from mailing list moderators as well, since list servers tend to queue stuff for moderation once the Cc header reaches a certain size. I really don't get the point of those demands for personal extra copies: do people or don't they read the mailing list? On the current computer setup, I am answering to the list. On a different computer, all mail to the mailing list disappears into a black hole without any indication why. So I _have_ to use gmane there. And I don't see why I should get heat for that when apparently the automoderation of the list is set up as rabidly as to quietly censor everything I send via Email (everybody else is able to receive mail through that account from me). -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum - 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
