That obscure reason is the MAILTO: link on the contact page here: http://www.openoffice.org/contact.html the HTML of which reads <a href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] YOU MUST GIVE A SUMMARY HERE">users@openoffice.org</a> Using this link is not the source of thread hijacking. It just preloads the subject line, which i question the merits of. If the subject line is left empty then most email clients will prompt for a subject anyway. Yet given the number of newbies and the frequency that the subject is "HELP" changing this link will not be a panacea. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
