Prefer top posting.
Easy to see if I want to scroll down to see if it is something
interesting to me.
I get a lot of e-mails each day and scrolling wastes too much time.
But if you have a solution to a problem that I raise, please feel free
to post it anywhere you like.

Please, for the benefit of anyone reading the archives in search of
answers to
a question, when replying to messages on this list, can everyone try
to follow
the natural flow of conversation? That is, position your reply
*AFTER* the
thing you are replying to, not before it. You may remove quoted
material in
order to keep the message size down, but please leave enough of it to
preserve
context.
(If you want to reply to a point made in the preceding paragraph,

If you need to make a point-by-point argument, split up your reply --
inserting artificial paragraph breaks into the quoted material, if
necessary --
so each section of your reply follows the point it is addressing.

This war comes up often, too often! Good manors are becoming a thing of
the past and this is a sad thing in my opinion. It has been my
experience that most people on this list prefer the older tried and
tested method of bottom posting. Makes it better for people who find
the post later while googleing a problem they are having. Question
before answers. If you feel that you do not have enough time to take
the 1 maybe two seconds to scroll to the bottom of a post, you are way
to busty and need to re-prioritize you activities. Obviously this is
just my opinion, take or leave it, your choice.
Thank You,
