I (a) strongly concur with this and (b) will add that this sentiment also applies to MSN/Hotmail, Yahoo, and, sadly [1], AOL. ---rsk [1] Why "sadly"? Because some years ago Carl Hutzler and his team managed to fight an uphill battle against AOL management apathy and cluelessness, and made significant progress toward the goal of making AOL's mail service a quality operation. AOL welcomed this success by dismissing the entire team and the slide back into incompetence and negligence began almost immediately. Not that I agreed with everything Carl et.al. did, because I didn't; but I recognized that they had good intentions and they worked hard. To see all that effort discarded is appalling. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
