What "long, rude, unpleasant emails" have I sent to you? Go ahead,
post everything that I've ever sent to you here. I've sent mails only
as long as the demands of your comments have warranted, filled only
with questions about what is broken for you in KDE 4 and links to bugs
on those very subjects. Rude or unpleasant? I think that you have me
mistaken. I'll give to you the benefit of the doubt, publish something
that you think I wrote to you which is rude or unpleasant.

Which messages exactly? "last two" is hard to identify given the
dynamic nature of this list.

All I did was ask about what issues you have with KDE 4 so that I
might fix them. You don't have to appreciate that, but I do not expect
you to turn it around and call that "rude and unpleasant". Maybe you
don't like KDE contributors taking an interest in your problems with
the software. Many other people do.

So how come that your most offensive email was _not_ sent to this list, but to
the KDE list? You clearly have some control over the behaviour of your email
client.

I did not know that I needed your permission to reply to you.

I apologize for annoying you with questions about what does not work
for you in KDE. Feel free to file your own bugs, to live with the
problems, or to find a suitable replacement. I mean that sincerely, no
hard feelings. There are lots of good DEs around, we are in a golden
era of Linux desktop development.

I usually simply hit Reply All, as that ensures that the message will
at a minimum go to the list no matter which list I'm posting on. If I
know to which letter you were referring, I might be able to answer you
with more detail. As I don't know to which letter you refer, then we
can assume that the Reply-To headers of the message had that list.
Only now am I delibertely changing the CC of the message, as you
requested not to CC you. Otherwise, my choices are Reply (only to
lisi.reisz@~) or to Reply All (to lisi.resiz@~ and to debian-user@~)
so you see that I _cannot_ reply to the list without replying to you
if I do not manually edit the CC list.

(no, I don't want to start *that* discussion yet again; interested
people can just search the archives)

I can't tell what mailer you are using, but most of the FLOSS mailers
have reply-to-list.
