Ubuntu is my Desktop system of choice. It is based on "debian", thus debian related. All those things are debian related as they run on the debian system.
I use ms outlook at work, cause I am locked down to use it. Does "god" run debian? Does "bush" run debian? Mutt runs on debian...... Programming is related to debian... All those topics are interesting to read, even though I know shit about them. So they are not off topic.... If god used debian and asked a question... then it would not be off topic.... Pity god does not exist, and pity he does not use debian if he did, he would post on this list, cause I value the opinions of the experts, cause they know 100% more then I do. Not trying to start a war, but I just want to read the debian related threads. And yes MS Outlook is the stupidest program in the computer world, but pity on me for being stuck with it at work... Thus my "emails" about OT threads... But now I am the problem replying to such emails... and this is my last reply... -----Original Message----- From: Roberto C.

While you are at it, why not criticize the people who post Ubuntu or Knoppix questions? How about those people who post programming questions? Or what about questions about how to use the powerful features of mutt? By your definition, the *majority* of the traffic on this list is OT. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C.
