Why should the point want to see comments that exist in the nodelist? I
think they are totally useless and they will confuse the avarage user who
doesn't even exactly know what a nodelist is. If you like to have all
comments from the nodelist posted to you by netmail every week, you may
enable it yourself - as you already did as I assume. ;)

There was a reason why I did it the way it is. I don't remember it, because
it's too long ago. I assume that some areas are displayed in another way
that I didn't like too much or something. The way it is now, it works, or
do you see any disadvantage (on my machine the converting of the config
file is so fast I don't notice it)? I know that I tried it the way you
suggest, but because of some reason I changed it.


See ya,
