I really don't know what the hell you're talking about.  I've been leaving the subject blank lately because people bitch about it for no apparent reason.  But if you really don't want the subject changing, why don't you ask Intnsred if he can set things so that the subject isn't changed?  A blank 'subject' line with a flashing cursor is just begging people to put something in.


I really, more often than not, don't know what the hell YOU'RE talking about, which  was my point.  And you just did it again, responding without quoting what you're responding to.  I suspect you're using a crippled email client - mine doesn't flash an empty subject line at me, and it invites me to quote what I'm responding to.  (And, for debian-user, I'm on gmail, which is by no means the most sophisticated of email clients.  It invites me to top-post, an invitation I ignore here; it makes editing the Subject line difficult; it makes quoting routine.)

As I said before, I'm just trying to help you be MORE helpful.  Sorry if you took it wrong.
