Agreed it's really poorly named. I think the idea is that if you enable it then it's as if the entire Discourse site becomes one huge mailing list that everyone is sending stuff to. I don't know why hardly anyone would find that useful. But, the method of "subscribing to mailing lists" in GNOME Discourse, is to add tags to your "Watched" list and tell Discourse to email you about all "Watched" items. IMO the way the GNOME Discourse site is organized is unfortunate: they created broad categories like Applications, Desktop, etc. Then they use tags to choose specific applications within them. It seems to me that it would be more useful/usable to create separate categories for each application like Evolution, etc. then tags could be used for different types of issues within the application, such as (for Evolution for example) IMAP, Exchange, UI, etc. etc. This would also mean that it would be simple to sort email because the category DOES appear in the subject of the email, while tags are nowhere to be found. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
