Thanks, Po Lu

Anyway I feel my use of mailing lists is, as said before, a poor man's approach.

For example, I get the digest with the index in my mail, and I have to search manually the message I am interested in.
If, to avoid that, I go directly to the website to read messages ordered by thread, if I want to answer to one of them, I push the "reply via email to" button, but I only get a blank new message to the author, in the mail client, without the original mail body cited nor the direction of the mail list.

Bests!
