This seems worth trying, but... > (Did you get both copies of my previous mail ? > One via debian-user, one by Cc: rodolfo.medina@gmail.com ?) ...he wouldn't have gotten both, anyway, due to a known Gmail misfeature. If Gmail receives a message, and sees that you already have a copy of a message (determined, as far as I can tell, exclusively by Message-ID), it will basically discard the incoming message as being redundant. So he would see whichever copy reached him first (probably the one that didn't come through the mailing list, since the mailing list adds delivery lag), and not the other. This also means that he'll never receive a copy of any message he sends to the mailing list. The only way for him to tell whether the message has been received and distributed properly is to ask some other subscriber, or check the public archives. Unless that misfeature has been fixed, or some other relevant factor (e.g. the distinguishing criteria for uniqueness) has changed, which would be positive news regardless but which I think is unlikely. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. -- George Bernard Shaw
