Sorry Margarita, but now I am around 7 years on Debian lists (First with Eudora 3 under WfW 3.11 and then Debian with mutt) and except Copy-and-Past I miss nothing with mutt. I have troied to use Mozilla-Mail as well as Thunderbird, but those are crap, specialy if I try to read Mails offline and get HTML-Mails which try to download tonns of pics... > We are not talking about developers, we are talking about anyone who > needs to send a mail to a mailing-list and get a reply.

Right and never I have ask for Cc: because I am on 68 Debian Lists. I get per day arround 20-40 Cc's which make my live hard to reply. Specialy if $STUPIDUSER set me into Bcc: where I can not determiner whether it is a Cc: or not. Peoples sending unwanted Cc: to me bother me and they can not expect an answer from me. +---[ '/home/michelle.konzack/.procmail/FLT_cced' ]------------------- | | #################################################################### | # | # FLT_cced | # | #################################################################### | | LOG=$TDPID"FLT_cced : pass$NL" | | :0 | * ^Envelope-to:.*(linux4michelle|sun4michelle)@freenet.de | { | :0 | * ^TO_.*(bind-users|lists.php.net|postgresql.org|lists.debian.org) | .ATTENTION.FLT_cced/ | | :0 | * ^TO_.*([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | .ATTENTION.FLT_cced/ | | :0 | * ^TO_.*([EMAIL PROTECTED]|fvwm@fvwm.org) | .ATTENTION.FLT_cced/ | } +--------------------------------------------------------------------- Here I filter stuff from list where I know some stupid peoples sending all the day tonns of Cc: to me...
