No need to get upset anyway. I've got an effective cure. And I'm not
considering upgrading my PowerBook HD either. It's about 2.5 years
old and the next thing will be a new PowerBook, not a new drive. But
I'm still not a fan of needless flotsam lingering around. And the
cure at this end is effective.
... but it solves a HUGE problem for mail list systems, which is how
to help users get access to list-administration options, since we
all know pretty much the only people who DO keep those "welcome"
messages are the people who don't need them anyway.
Isn't that the truth.
information. There's no point in seeing it or storing it. I just
want 4 lines in the header: To, From, Subject, and Date.
and the nice thing is, if you really, really want that, you have the
ability to do things on the client end to do it.
The script works fine, and eliminates the hidden blah blah blah too.
these headers are a new, emerging email standard. I'd like to
suggest you get used to them, because I think over the next year or
so, they'll become very common as MLMs add the feature and sites
upgrade to the new software.
In this workspace "getting used to them" will mean beefing up the
all purpose header and footer zapper. It's set up to deal with three
lists now, and I'll just add more as the need warrants.
...it allows us to help build tools for those that don't know the
techie details enough to do these things for themselves - and that's
a huge problem with mail lists right now.
No argument there. It probably does make it so people don't post the
"unsubscribe me from your list" messages. But when the header list
almost fills a page, it's gettin' to be a bit much.
