You can put the display fields in any order you like. Open the address book, left click and drag the field heading to where you want it. > > Nor does Kaddressbook have any help.

I filter each list I am subscribed to in it's own folder. By selecting the folder contains a mailing list, I can define the "post" address for each list. As Reuben pointed out, distribution lists work fine, but each address you want to add has to exist in the address book first. Annoying I agree, but functional enough. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3} in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9sLdLn/07WoAb/SsRAncGAJ9KTLtGAizyOWnwxZ4ABSCU57O2qQCgtrWZ e2roux0vsM86DwuHSBg8GWQ= =qAP3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
