Hello list,
I wonder if we could improve the mailing list footer for scap-security-guide
It can be configured in mailing list administration in section “Non-digest options”.
Currently the footer looks like: "_______________________________________________ scap-security-guide mailing list scap-security-guide@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/scap-security-guide%E2%80%9D
What about something more useful?
“-- scap-security-guide@lists.fedorahosted.org mailing list https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/scap-security-guide https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide/wiki/Collateral-and-Referenc...
The most important change is replacing “_______________________________________________” with “-- "
“-- “ is usually interpreted by e-mail clients as “beginning of signature” and automatically stripped from replies. Take note that it is dash dash space.
It would help prevent mailing list signatures from accumulating in replies like this:
[blah blah]
Good idea
