Since you are trying to turn this discussion into a trial against me, I will clarify a few things. I had forgotten that the mailing-list rules state clearly to complain in private, and I have neglected this rule by mistake. I apologize for it. Nonetheless, there are a few details in your accusations that need to be set straight: - The two rules are on exactly the same level in. You choose to call one innocuous and the other morally serious. This is your judgement, not universal. What we can objectively say is that one came first, and was deliberate. - If you read carefully, I did not complain of being CCed. Anybody can forget to edit the headers before sending, I wound not have complained for so little. In fact, I did not complained, I advised: Ms Racicot-Summerside did not CC by mistake, she purposefully overrode a reply-to header, it is a mistake that can have more severe consequences than an extraneous CC, including replies getting lost or arriving where they should definitely not arrive. The purpose of my mail was not to complain, it was to advise. I will ask you, if you want to continue piling accusations and reproach over me, to at least have your facts straight. That being said, I am sure I will now remember that this kind of mail is to be sent in private, and I apologize again for forgetting and thus wasting everybody's time in a useless discussion that has already been too long. My next mail in this thread will be to give an account of the configuration of the printer, but it will have to wait a little that I have upgraded the relevant host to Bullseye.
