[Digikam-users] Old mails

as I gather from another thread, which I just found (guess it got 'lost' 
in the bunch of mail suddenly flooding my iphone, overview on a proper 
computer just is better ;-) ), it was something that needed to be done 
quickly, or the list would have been a goner:

I didn't consider it annoying, I was just surprised and that's why I 
asked for information. I think trashing the detritus queue-side is not a 
good idea, as the moderator probably doesn't know whether you actually 
recieved the mail (?). Guessing here, though. At least you'd expect only 
mails in the queue that didn't get sent to the list, though I think this 
wasn't the case here, as I definetely remember having read some of those 
old mails before.
