I still have got a cold and much time, so I searched the archive:

"Before using the Suse mailing list it's important to read this:
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Mailing_list_netiquette

E.g.: "Another problem is that some people are subscribed to multiple
lists, and they don't appreciate multiplied email volume as that is
either more work to follow, or just more noise in the mail box."

So if you already ask something on several other mailing lists, don't
ask the same questions again." -

It simply is a quoted rule, how to use the Suse mailing lists, since AP
had issues on several other mailing lists, asking the same question.
IIRC she/he didn't sent or CC'ed one mail, but subscribed to a list and
started the same request again and again. I didn't notice it and I
wouldn't care about it, but I got a mail off-list from somebody who is
subscribed to those lists and Debian users and ask me to stop replying
to the "what mail client is the best" thread.

That's the context.

Ralf
