Darrell,
It just snapped to me as I was following the conversation through a nicely threaded discussion - Darrell has a new mailer! I see it is kmail and it is working great. Thanks for the switch. I'm sure you are viewing the messages threaded, if not look under the 'Folder' menu and there is an option for Message Threading that will show all messages threaded by conversation on your end. Looks good, thanks!

Get a life.
Go take a long walk.
On a short pier.
While inebriated.
Tried that, all I got was cold, wet and hungover :)
I am confused by how kmail handles messages. When I send a reply to a thread message, kmail automatically files my reply in the list folder. Then with the next mail fetch I receive my same response from the list, which gets filtered and moved to the list folder. I end up with two copies of every reply I send.
I do not have any filters configured to move my replies. I have only one related filter to move incoming into the list folder.
How do I stop the duplication?
And how do I get rid of the stupid double dash that separates my response from my name signature?

The stupid double dash is the the defacto marker signifying the beginning of a sig. Why would you want rid of it?

Sorry, double dash plus space actually :)

Because I am anal sonuvabitch.
Not a very nice way to talk about your Mother.
De facto according to whom?
According to 'Usenet' standards. Google is your friend.
my technical (worthless) vote would be to just remove the -- and allow people to put the -- in their signature if they want...

Look in the configuration of KMail / Editor / Templates - there you can customize everything - including the dashes.
KMail is simply the best! :)

Another reason not to mess with what is working so well.

That would be too simple.

Please do not fill new bug report - dashes can be set in configuration. On the other hand, such bug report could not be ignored, but it would be very quickly solved ;)
well the question of course is all about defaults. I think by default it's strange to force the usenet style... it'd be easy enough to remove by default

In this case we talk about template for replying to mailing lists - such defaults seems to be appropriate.

Getting up on the right or wrong side would not change my opinion that "Google is your friend" is a pompous response.
Be careful who you invite to blow you. What you stick in might not come out in one piece.

Whatever .....

Usenet standards. Like the stupid habit of using a backtick at the beginning of a quotation and an apostrophe at the end. Or religiously using doubles spaces after punctuation rather than a single space.

No clue, but it is the standard, just like with my signature below. When used, the signature is automatically removed on reply/forward and replace by your signature. I'm sure there is a RFP that details it somewhere, but I haven't googled it :)

RFC 3676, section 4.3, describes it, but the custom predates that document by many years. Interestingly, RFC 1855 ("Netiquette Guildelines"), which I would have expected to be the governing document, makes no mention of sigdashes. It's always been primarily a Usenet convention, though--I expect it spread to email when it became common to combine the clients for both communication methods in a single program.

It seems that you have set "Keep replies in this folder" and at the same time you set on the server, so that server also send you your own posts. Either turn off the "Keep replies in this folder" in KMail or adjust configuration for your address on the mailing list server.
Dashes separating the signature are useful to others - mail client through these dashes can automatically cut off signatures when replying. In any case - in configuration of KMail / Editor / Tepmlates you can set the template for the answers to the conferences.

Thanks, I'll try that. That was not obvious to me.

I have looked in the templates. Removing the double dash was not obvious to me. Finally I figured out to disable global insertion of a signature and then just manually type my user name in the template after %CURSOR.
