OK, but top posting combined with not snipping combined with a
commercial message *is* a bad thing.

Yes I can read English.

But I do have a problem.
Not a big problem, but a problem nonetheless.

Yes He Can!

This mailing list is not for "Staying in touch".
This mailing list is for technical support.

Indeed, that is your opinion.
However we don't know if that is also the opinion of the BlackBerry user.
Anyway I don't see how a BlackBerry helps with an overflowing mailbox. I
think that this thread proves that it makes it only worse.

I don't know, I can only speak for myself

I'm not oversensitive

I'm certainly not hateful! I don't hate you and I don't hate the
BlackBerry user and I don't hate anyone else.
In fact, I like everybody on this list so much, including the BlackBerry
user, that I want to help everyone become more efficient, in the true
spirit of Ubuntu. (the African concept, not the Linux distro that was
named after it)

> PS: not so "kind" these regards are, Amedee.

That is not very kind of you.
But I don't care, if you slap me on the left cheek I will still turn my
right cheek. And no I'm not a gristian. At all. Quite the opposite.


Very kind regards,
Amedee
