Re: [libreoffice-users] constant crashes

When this odd mailist behavior was instituted a while back, many people 
complained and it was decided by the instituter that there was to be a 
poll about it and if most people in the poll complained, they would 
return to the standard behavior. What ever happened to that?
All I see are complaints about this behavior. I don't remember anyone 
saying they loved it.
Like the other poster, I find it mildly annoying - especially after 
sending, I realize I used the wrong method and have to do it all over 
again. That's not very productive.
