Thread: Kusu-users Digest, Vol 8, Issue 4

I just received a list digest today.
Most of the entries are being treated by my email client ( Thunderbird
2.0.0.12) as
part of a signature.

This is due to the fact that the list is generating a series of dashes
between message entries.

As email default behaviour is to mark a signature with a pair of dashes,
the client is reading the first row of dashes as a signal that all
following is an email signature.

I could turn off that behaviour in my email client, but the proper
solution is to use a more appropriate separator between messages..

Just a thought..

Hi Maurice,

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately there is no straightforward
way to deal with this issue in our mailing list manager. I will monitor
updates to our software and revisit this issue with you when the
appropriate updates are available.

For future queries of such a nature, please send to
kusu-users-owner@osgdc.org.

Regards,
