As once kindly suggested by Randal, I'm using this procmail rule:
:0 Wh: msgid.lock | formail -D 8192 msgid.cache
which filters out all the duplicates for me. Very handy.
Also we can ask for the Reply-To header, which many don't like, but fine with me.

- style sheet changes: The underline I mentioned before. It seems to be a little more lively than the previous lighter gray hover. + or - ?
I'm +0 on this change. Shouldn't then all hover behave in the same way? e.g. the links on the index.html pages (to the docs) are still the old way.
Probably, but I only did that menu on my site for you to preview. It seems there's a couple of link styles.
I think that hover should be active, but to me the hover currently seems like the item is un-selected because it goes to a color closer to the background. Using underline seems to be a bit more lively.
If everyone is +0 then it's not worth the effort, but I think the site could use a little more spice.
It's fine with me. But may be it's because I've looked at it for too many times.
- I added an "input" style to keep the input boxes from being so big in
NS4.0.
See any problem with using that? It does make the submit buttons courier font. Maybe that's why it's so common to use a graphic as the button instead of a real submit button.
what's the improvement? It looks the same on NS4/linux
On NS4 on Windows it keeps the input box from being huge.
sure, put it in then if it doesn't break other things (on other platforms)
- The search widget box (in left side-bar): It changes depending on where it is. On the home (root) page it doesn't give the two options. Same on the search page and anywhere else where it wouldn't make a difference.
-1 on any page but the advanced search. it changes the skeleton.
What do you mean? Are you saying you want it to look the same every place and not change? Ok, I can see that, but I don't think it should give two choices where there's only one choice possible.
yup
I've an alternative solution. Move from checkboxes to pulldown menu with 'This' as a default. Solves all the layout changes problems and gives you a bunch of new possibilities (like adding more options there!). Also takes less space.
(This is the side-bar search box)
You mean a pulldown box with all the various places to search? Or just a pull down menu of This section and Whole site?
First we move to the pulldown menu, which always takes one row. Then you can have 'This Section' and "Whole", or only one thing.
That said, How about moving the search back into the nav bar? This will make things so much simpler for the search (simple search on top) extra button to bring the advanced search.
The problem was that Netscape 4 made the input field so huge, but maybe
that's fixed with the style sheet addition.
I've shortened it again. it cannot be more than 12 chars. May be we can live with that? Now that Mozilla 1.0 should be released in a few weeks, most people should drop NS4 for good.
If I understand correctly, you don't really like the side-bar search because it uses too much space? I'd agree there.
That's the first reason.
The second reason that it's disconnected from the content. 'This section' at the top of the document, next to its title is so much clearer than on the side, where everything is disconnected and generic.
I think we could make the search a small input box and a graphic button.
you mean at the top? I'm +1. And a pulldown menu with this/all.
