Q, if you delete your reply-to address, it would be easier for
people on the Mandrake/Mandriva lists to respond to your posts.
Hi Miark,
Many thanks for your suggestion. Now I have removed my address from the
reply-to. In fact I don't realize that. What problem does it cause?
Bests,
Are you running KDE 3.4, Miark? Cannot it be caused by KDE 3.4? Well,
it is just a suspicion, because I think I have tried everything to get
the Acrobat Reader plugin working, but with no luck.
Hi Paul,
I guess your doubt might be sound as I use KDE 3.2 and AR 7.0 does work well
with me.
Many thanks Anne. I really don't realize it's the problem of replying posts
directly to me, not the list. I thought it has caused some other problems.
Now I'm clear.
