Re: [44net] E-mail clients

I don't use the e-mail client to "reply". I have set the list to digest mode, the daily digests I move to a separate folder that effectively is a trashcan, and I read the topics via the mailman archive site where I cut and paste parts into a new mail message every time. So no threads from me. I don't like mailing lists. At ALL. Precisely because thread management is so difficult, uninteresting threads cannot be killed, and traffic comes in between normal mail. I would propose setting up a small USENET server with one or a couple of groups and then use a newsreader to read and reply to the threads. But that is apparently considered old-fashioned as well by some, and newer methods are considered unacceptable. So, no change. Live with it. Make a processing rule in your mailclient that dumps the 44net mail in a separate folder, so your Inbox is left clean. Rob
