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.

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?

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

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

Be careful who you invite to blow you. What you stick in might not come out in one piece.

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.

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.
