I think it was discussed a while back and that's when it was decided to leave things like this. I myself use Sylpheed-Claws which can deal with such issues in a number of ways (including per-folder preferences and a reply-to-list button) so I can't say I really mind. Reply-to-all is also a simple solution; I for one actually prefer a copy of the message in my inbox, to make sure I don't miss it. > Thanks. That was the problem.

Not in Blackbox 0.65. It works in Blackbox 0.70, which is currently available only from CVS. Be warned that you'll also need bbkeys from CVS for that. > Here's my ~/.xinitrc > > #!/bin/bash > /usr/bin/bbkeys -i & > /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm & > /usr/bin/firefox & > /usr/bin/gnome-panel & > exec /usr/bin/blackbox > ~/.blackbox.log 2>&1 Here's a classic tip: if you want to control the order in which these applications start, run them like this: sleep 1 && app1 & sleep 2 && app2 & ... You might enjoy the Blackbox slit too. Check out dockapps.org for a bunch of goodies. They load in the slit as soon as they are loaded. If you use Blackbox 0.65 you may also want to use bbpager. > slowly. What I did was *INSTALL* GNOME and KDE but run FVWM.

Be warned that for the newest versions of Gnome and KDE desktop environments you'll need Blackbox 0.70 after all; they are all based on the new NetWM standard from freedesktop.org, while Blackbox 0.65 implements ICCCM (the old "standard"). -- Ciprian Popovici
