yeah, the reply thingies in gmail have screwed me up too before ... i also hate the fact it defaults to top posting in replies :P

What do you do in your spare time? How can you best benefit an open-source community ;-P.

i'm a Gentoo developer (would have never guess that huh!) ... currently i'm the lead for the games team and i co-load the qa/base/toolchain teams. since not too many people wander outside the realm of x86 (and amd64), i'm also the lead for the arm and superh ports. in my spare, spare time, i work on the Gentoo embedded team where i hack on our cross-compiling toolchain capabilities and i help develop uClibc both upstream (http://uclibc.org/) and in integrating it as a drop-in replacement for glibc. working with solar (the other embedded guy i work with), we release uclibc stages for x86/ppc/arm/mips/mipsel. i also enjoy a cold mountain dew beverage and long walks on the beach. if anyone has non-x86 machines to spare, i enjoy donations :) particularly a m68k/coldfire box would be sweet ... Gentoo doesnt have a port for it [yet] anyone else feel like gushing ? ;) -mike

It doesn't unless you have just posted something incorrectly, and feel that you should click the little (and I do mean little) "Show options" link to see why you just humiliated yourself. Of course, if you were to just look at the to: field write about your reply text, you would probably notice who the actual reply goes to, but it's not really one of those things that you (and by 'you', I mean 'I') think to double check. Aw well, live and learn. Now that I know, I will probably double-check for days, maybe weeks, before I lose interest, and forget until the next time ;). So yeah, anyone want a gmail account, I've got a bunch of invites to give away ;P. <plug> Honestly, despite my storry of temporary incompetence (what, it *was* temporary) gmail is actually really nice. It, like pretty much everything that google does, blows any competition it might have out of the water. It is by far the best web-mail app out there, and it offers the most flexibility and features. </plug> So there, feel free to blacklist me so you can avoid this drivel in your inbox.

Could have something to do with the mailing list munging the Reply-To header...heh.

Does gmail not show you this header?
