Or adjust your mail client. Then you could save yourself the name
calling, which changes the mood of the mailing list and causes issues
for more people than just your target.

Are you ready?

Both parties have known each other for several years. If you had seen
the conversation on IRC between them, you would not have categorized
this as name-calling. It was a tongue-in-cheek comment that people
without context can easily misunderstand.

It's okay. We go back some years. We've met in person. I can read
Mike's text tone. We're just playin'. Besides, I learned
something important, namely that despite my configs, Claws Mail
wasn't behaving properly, so I had to make a few changes. S'all good.
At no point was I hurt by the "nub" label. I think I replied "NO
U," which is of course how we handle things off-list.

Yeah but I was also wondering why Mike was calling you names like that.
As >99% of people on this list don't get the inside joke maybe this is
not the best media for it.

We got the official invite from the organizers, as well as the
CFP/talks. I'm interested in going yet again, especially since it's
moved to a new venue.
