Is anyone else getting this junk regarding the list? And can we put a stop to it?

Got the same message. I think Miyoko's fight should be with the vendors, not the poor people who are subjected to the whims of an IS department. Kris

Hi, I read your messages in mailing list.

Your using mailer(MUA) does not seems to support In-Reply-To nor References field. These field is defined in RFC-2822. If these field does not be outputted when you reply, tree construction will be break every time you post the messages to mailing list. It is inconvenient for the others.

Please please change your mailer for the public good, at least when you post to mailing list.

Today almost mailers support these field(at least In-Reply-To) except for the following mailers.

MSN hotmail Exchange Server <= 2000 (Exchange Server 2003 will support In-Reply-To.) Lotus Notes < 6.0 MIME-Tools AOL mailer dtmail Novell GroupWise foxmail
