Yeah, I'm annoyed by it too. I quick glanced over my program's (Eudora Pro
4.2) options and couldn't see anything connected to the problem with my
replies to the group. That's why I'm including your personal email address
in this message, and also Cc'ing it to Todd.
If anyone who uses Eudora Pro with Lugnet groups by mail has fixed the
problem, please let me know. I'm also looking on how to enable a Reply To:
field in Eudora, its not in the options either. Todd?
And the funny thing is, the built in automatic spell check claims the word
'Eudora' is a misspelling. :)

I'm not disagreeing that having sets in LDraw format in the OMR is
beneficial. I think its *very* beneficial. But I want to make sure the
author of these sets is taking the time to be careful about accuracy. But
you do have a point, it does give the group immediate value. :)
(there are just some other rudimentary things I would like to see done
around here too.)
BTW - this reminds me we need to get the OMR storage and submission system
ironed out and built. Hopefully we can make some headway in the next week
before I go back to school (senior!!!! :) )

LOL :) Yeah...

Right, I understand both of your perspectives. I agree, this is a place
where users should respect one another and act maturely.

I agree with the whole mentoring thing. But I don't see how it can be
effectively implemented in this case. I guess we'll just have to sit back
and see how it works - maybe some part of my mind is too clouded to see
what some others can see. I just feel that this has drug on too long. And
re-reading some references to posts by him that I have obtained via email
sours my taste for this whole situation. Esp JW's complete disregard of
Tore's family situation for his concern about parts....(!)
