My goodness! This and the other 50 threads on the same topic in the last two months need to stop. Really! Some have problems with receiving mail from certain providers. Others have problems with users of providers that have "acceptable" features. Others just like to keep threads like this going. I for one do not need to see another thread about the manner in which users post to the list b/c it is futile.
Sure, sometimes noobs f things up. Yes, sometimes experienced users f things up. Get over it or leave the list. This is NOT a debian issue! Amazingly, questions are being "answered" despite the manner in which they are asked. I understand that pet-peevs are difficult to . . . ignore, but get over it. Just the other day, the list lost a wonderful participant . . . joeHill (moment of silence ;-) Questions get asked . . . if they are asked in a manner in which you approve and have something (possibly) to offer, then offer it . . . otherwise, delete and move on. Subtlety has yet to work concerning this issue. A continuous set of threads that address an issue that is not going to change is . . . well . . . less than advantageous to the project. Free up some space for those who actually have issues that can be taken care of. If the delivery in which this *rant* was sent offended anyone . . . too bad! Oh . . .
