Ideally, stuff should get added when you compose and email the first time. This is a patch I want to make at some point. Cheers, Edward
Two more questions :P 1) Some messages end up in the wrong thread. When there is no other useful info, sup appears to guess a thread by the Subject similarity. Unfortunately that ends up being very wrong for my university mailing list, since they have no List-Id, but the full university name in the Subject and people won''t learn to write meaningful Subjects. [blablablalblalbafooomal uni blabla] hi is displayed in the same thread with [blablablalblalbafooomal uni blabla] hello although those are two different threads. Can I manually fix those? 2) how''s that address book generated? I have sup-talk-request and sup-talk-something but not sup-talk. thanks -- Arvid

If you''re seeing messages with different subjects in the same thread, a later one contains a reference to an earlier one. Sometimes this happens if people reply to a mailing list message and change the subject as a way of starting a new message. You can confirm this by examining the in-reply-to and references headers of the later message.> 2) how''s that address book generated? > I have sup-talk-request and sup-talk-something > but not sup-talk.By manually adding contacts, e.g. with ''i'' in thread-view-mode, plus a couple recent contacts automatically drawn from the index. -- William <wmorgan-sup at masanjin.net>
