[Tools-discuss] Re: Too aggressive rate limiting for mailinglist web archives inhibits normal use

[Erik Auerswald <[e-mail]>]

Hi Andy,

thanks for this information!  I did not try to do that.

The default frame sizes work well for me, especially because I do not use
a full screen browser window.  Because of this, increasing the message
list to allow comfortable mouse wheel scrolling reduces the message
content too much for my taste.

I'll try to adjust and use a full screen browser window to read the
mailing list archives.

Br,
Erik
