Don't be like that. You hijacked my thread by not starting a new message with a new subject. Rookie mistake; we've all done it. No need to get your nose out of joint -- that should be my reaction to your hijack. LOL Anyway what you probably did was just delete the subject and enter a new one. That's not the same as creating a completely new message. ;) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
