Re: [WiX-users] Querying the package and installed productarchitecture
I would if I could. It seems that the webmail system (SmarterMail) used by my provider doesn't expose a way to implement this part of RFC2822. The other obvious point is why are we still using a mailing list in 2011. But the mailing list vs bulletin board horse has already been flogged. Still, I hang out on StackOverflow nearly every day so if anyone wants to post questions using my platform of choice feel free.
