Hi :) Gmail and Yahoo are both affected. They might be "bogus systems" but they are 'quite' widely used so we need to find a way of getting something that does work with both. Blaming users and expecting them to change systems is not a winning strategy. It might be good to develop working relationships with Yahoo & Gmail devs and management to see if their "bogus systems" can be corrected. Regards from Tom :)

Sadly not. Only bogus sytems can't handle this. It's sad that GMail is affected. :/ Florian -- Florian Effenberger <[email protected]> Steering Committee and Founding Member of The Document Foundation Tel: +49 8341 99660880 | Mobile: +49 151 14424108 Skype: floeff | Twitter/Identi.ca: @floeff -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/marketing/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/marketing/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
