One of my cats picks nits out of his fur, so I'm going to do the same, but in good humor and friendship! LOL The special notes say: "Some special-case subscribers might want to be able to post to a list but might not want to receive messages from that list (community contributors who post announcements, for instance). In this case, please subscribe to the so-called "nomail" version of the list by attaching -nomail to the normal subscription address. For example, to do this for The Document Foundation general discussions list, the subscription address would be: discuss+subscribe-nom...@documentfoundation.org." It is not clear you have to use this option to be able to read the list via a newsgroup server, and I presume the same is for Gmane. I would suggest to whomever is in charge a change in the special notes if I was sure how to do offer the suggestion. How do I make the change in the email preferences? Unsubscribe my current email address and then resubscribe adding the "nomail" option? This reply and the previous one to Larry Gusass is sent from Gmane. Getting that to work was another exercise in frustration, but eventually figured it out. Two things I don't like about Gmane's operations is no way to collapse threads that I've found, and vertical frame size adjustments are not retained, although that may be a browser problem. As of right now, I've only used Gmane in Firefox 3.6.13 in Mac OS X 10.6.6.
