That would be up to the creativity of the developer

Aaargghh! There's nothing worse than "creativity" in a GUI context where *conistency* is what it's all about. "Creative" GUIs are just awful.

How is the user to know about the "creative intuitions" of the developer?

Even if it could, how were it to know which list to delete, and which list to keep?

I haven't really thought this completely through, but at first glance, does it really matter which one is kept and which one is tossed?

Of course. I have two mailboxes for the two lists. If selection happened by chance, I had half the thread in one box, and the other half in the other :-/

And what if I decide I keep the messages for the Apple list and delete those for the Omni one, and then some interesting comments are mailed only to the Omni list because other people decided to skip the messages to Apple and keep those to Omni?

Na, the main problem is that nobody should feel so much more important than others that he urges for answers by forcing *all* readers of the two lists to read *his* messages twice. Most of us read both lists, anyway, I guess.

Bye
Uli
