The web archive is meant for read-only reference, there is no direct way to reply. But this is a mailing list not a web forum, so it's not supposed to work that way. Some alternatives: - Subscribe to the list. - Use gmane. - Use nabble. - When posting, mention that you are not subscribed and ask to be left in CC. - Use the ezmlm email interface to have the message you want to reply to sent to you (e.g. by sending a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) - Use the web archive's "raw text" link to get an mbox copy[1] that you can import into your email program and reply to. [1] This will not be a valid mbox format as addresses are munged. You can undo this by hand or automatically by adding the skipmung parameter.
