Re: [Tutor] Mailing list question

2006-10-26 Thread Jonathon Sisson
Greetings everyone...

I use Thunderbird, too.  I've noticed that it handles threads a bit 
strange...for instance, I have pytutor set up to send me copies of my 
replies (so I can track threads better), but Thunderbird won't display 
my replies inline with the threads...

If you go to the folder you want to see threads in, then click on view, 
you can look at your thread settings.  Under "sort by" you should be 
able to set "Threaded" or "unthreaded", and under Threads (under the 
view menu) you should have it set to "all".  I know that there are 
subtle differences between Firefox for Windows and Firefox for *nix, but 
I don't know about Thunderbird.  If you're using Windows, there might be 
slight differences between what you see what I see in the menus.

I don't know if that helps at all, but that's how I have Thunderbird set 
up when it comes to threads.

It's better to use reply-all, in my opinion, because then, if someone's 
involved in an e-mail thread, they'll get an instant
update on it even if they only get the Tutor Digest and not every 
individual mail.

Just hit Reply All.
There should be a command or button in your mail tool 
to do that, even if you use web mail.

 Not so much a question about Python, but here goes:

 How do I reply to a specific thread in the mailing list? If I place 
 "Re:bla bla"  in the subject line, I notice that I start a new 
 thread, I don't continue one that already exists. How do I go about 
 doing this? Thanks for any info

That's what I use (Reply All and Thunderbird) and whenever I check my 
gmail account from the website, the messages I write appear threaded 
correctly.
Well, that's assuming threading is the same as gmail conversations.
Hope that helps

There's a little bit of extra information that Mailman uses to detect 
threads.  The archives don't cluster messages based on the subject line, 
but instead use a specific header value whose name I'm completely 
forgetting right now... *grin* (I think it's the 'In-Reply-To' header 
line.)  Your email client should be the one responsible for maintaining 
that threading information.

What e-mail client are you using?  Most have a reply-to-all button you 
can use so that you won't have to start a new message to reply to someone.
