Yeah, it's kind of counter-intuitive. I've done it myself, and I'll probably 
do it again.

Hmmm, thanks for the heads-up - I would be one of those. I checked and 
saw that kmail inserted this automagically, so I went back to my 
configuration and took out the reply-to. Always did wonder why it 
wanted to know my email address twice (in Reply-to and Email Adress 
fields). The kmail docs are no help on this at all.

Too right!!!  You tell him!!!



I've also found that having 512MB RAM on my laptop REALLY helps - and even SDRAM is so cheap these days one would be mad not to get some - otherwise it all comes off the hard disk in the end so no amount of 'trurbo' software will do anything.



With enough RAM - Linux seems to work ultra-efficiently by using hard disk caches and buffers - it's really good.



Load an app once and it will load very quickly every time after that.  Windows does bugger all with the RAM - it either sits there or gets chewed up by some stupid windoze app.



So do yourself a favour and go and shell out a few bikkies for say 256MB RAM and you will be amazed what difference that makes..

We wait patiently when we launch mozilla the first time after we login
and then keep at least one mozilla window opened or minimized until we
logout.

For future reference, proper etiquette for this mailing list is to
refrain from tampering with the Reply-To: header and to refrain from
appending signatures that are longer than your message.

   In your mailer, instead of leaving 'reply to' blank, you entered your 
email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). This overides auto 
replies comin to the list.  You're not the only one, on this list or 
many other lists doin this.  Tryin to stop people from makin this mildy 
rude mistake is like discouraging HTML (very rude). Same thing with not 
limiting characters per line to =<72. Usually it's just an unawareness 
of the consequences by (new) users.  

   It's been netiquette since before there was a Net, to limit sigs to 
no more than 4 lines (including blank ones), and no banners, ASCII art 
or not.  More current netiquette is just to say who you are and maybe 
where from.  Preferably on one line.  Specially now that small screen 
hand held wireless devices are popular, and more'n more people are 
connected worldwide, but pay for d/l size and/or connect time.

Hey, I am sorry if my signature hurts your eyes.  What did you say about
