That's why you should quote the text where you're replying to. In general, bottom-posting is normal. When things get large, just split up a large post and respond to small peaces and put your response below the quoted text. Quoting a whole thread from the start is useless if it doesn't have anything to do with the thing you're replying to. If people want to read the whole thread, they can read the archives. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
