One more thing Devyn should do is watch the “To:” field and make sure
it says python-list@python.org, because the above message was sent to
Chris only, and that is not what should happen most of the time.
Another option is to use Reply All, but it will make old Usenet hags
angry, because they would get two copies.

In Thunderbird, use Reply-List, rather than Reply-All, and it'll go to the right place. Still worth checking, though.

Thank you and sorry about that.

Kwpolska, I noticed your email shows "stop html mail" at the bottom. I have
Thunderbird setup to use HTML mail. Are my emails coming up as plain text or
HTML on this mailing list?

Apparently, it comes in plaintext.  Mailman does not say that it
removed HTML, so it should be fine.  Either way, there should be a
switch in the new message window to set what should be sent.


I only see one message from Devyn, and it's not the one quoted here. But the one I do see is in plain text. The safest way to tell (other than noticing that indentation randomly goes away, or that things are missing, or ...) is to view the source.

In Thunderbird, select the message, then View->MessageSource. Then search in that for html. Frequently there's two versions of the message, one text and one html. What you want is a single version, text.
