Re: Problems compiling Balsa

[Misu Moldovan <dumol home ro>]

And by the way wouldn't be wise for Balsa to ask for a subject from 
the users that forget to provide one? :)

--
/me did a quick copy'n'paste job after the initial mail with the 
subject "Problems compiling Balsa" got rejected by mail.gnome.ro 
with: 

<balsa-list@gnome.ro>: host mail.gnome.ro[193.230.233.135] said: 550
