Also, by default, I receive email notifications when one replies to my posts, with a link to the reply (I can turn this feature off on a per-topic basis too). Finally, in the web interface, I can choose to see only the subjects I've seen recently, or the new subjects since my last visit, or those I've started. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marcin 'Qrczak' Kowalczyk" To: Sent: Saturday, July 26, 2003 5:58 PM Subject: Re: [Caml-list] Why not a forum instead of a mailing-list ?

I'm subscribed to over 20 mailing lists from 10 origins. It would be really inconvenient to have a different interface to read each of them, each with its own limitations which can't be fixed by using a different client software. It's easy to check what's new in all mailing lists with a single key combination. It would be significantly harder if I had to click on each forum separately (and for each in a different place). For me a mailing list or a newsgroup are the only viable alternatives. -- __("< Marcin Kowalczyk \__/ qrczak@knm.org.pl ^^ http://qrnik.knm.org.pl/~qrczak/ ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners _____________________________________________________________________ Envie de discuter en "live" avec vos amis ?
