Well, I don't think my comment was meant for you, but maybe I totally misunderstand what you are saying here (English is of course not my native language, that's why it look very strange sometimes). >> >> If you plan to write here again, you should subscribe to >> the list. > > That's fine for you, but realize that what you like isn't necessarly > anyonre/everyone else's cup of tea. I guess I should have written ”could” instead of ”should” or something, I don't know. Anyway, I have always said that if someone is not subscribed it's not my problem that he or she doesn't receive my replies. People didn't like that kind of attitude, so now I changed that; I even added that address to the ”To:” field, to make sure that my reply would reach the right person. I guess I now need to find a third way of doing it, but I'm not sure what's left. Well, I know one thing: Not replying at all. That's quick and easy and doesn't annoy anyone. I think I'll go with that until I find something better. Thanks for your advice. >> Then you will get all the replies to your questions >> directly in your >> inbox, also from those who didn't added your email >> address in the >> b To:b field manually, like I just didb& You will also >> get other peoples questions, but that is how email lists >> work.

I guess I totally misunderstood what's ”plain text”. I thought it was the same as ”not formatted” text. Only enter text, not formatted in any way. Everything I type is plain UTF-8 text, which is 8 bits in the most common cases, but a lot of characters requires two or even three bytes. Are you really suggesting to use 7-bit text? In that case you can only write in English, so what about when I write to the LibreOffice mailing list in my language? Three of our letters in our alphabet doesn't exist in 7-bit text, and they are VERY commonly used in my language. And with 7 bits none of the eastern Asian countries, like China, Japan and more, could write to a mailing list. For me it is UTF-8 or nothing, so I guess I just have to unsubscribe to all mailing

I'm well aware of maling lists, forums and newsgroups etc.. I use NNTP instead of the mailing list for what are normally obvious reasons to most, not the least of which is not getting a mass of unrelated to anything I care about from a mailing list. A mailing list can be great for a newbie just trying to pull as much info as they can about as many subjects as they can, but you can't beat NNTP for its conciseness and ablity to easly pick responsed to a post almost instantly. Mailinig lists can quickly become irritating. Add to that the management capabilities and no gui waste as with forums, and you have what I still consder the best listing tool around.

I have more to do than scan mailing lists looking for my post responses when I can have them pointed out to me automatically and all grouped together. When I have a question, I DO NOT CARE to see other answers; I might if I were a newbie and had lots of time avalable, but I don't.

Here is how: As I said in my prevous posting, you can underline, overline, strike-thru,double-strike-thru, use colors with them and so on in Writer at the program's location I gave. Also note how clunky your post looks below because I only read posts in Plain Text and nothing else. I respectfully advise that you should post and e-mail also in Plain Text unless there is some compelling reason not to. It's even a good idea to have anything that's 8-bit dropped to the floor just to prevent any type of unintended code execution in the body of an e-mail. With Plain Text, you don't get the Unicode or Mime problems that go along with 8-bit e-mails.

You didn't mention an OS or LO version so I'll be general, too. On mine, it's at Format, character in the top menu bar. Select the word you want to cross out, click Format; Character and choose from the single/double/over/under etc. lines available there. Lots more than MS offered. LO s NOT Word, so some things are more logically located.
