I normally feel the same way, but I have learned to love other peoples
sloppy e-mail practices. I subscribe to more mailing lists then I have
time to read, and find the following rules quite useful when deciding to
read or skip a message. I quite simply skip messages that:
1) are top-posted;
or
2) quotes excessively;
or
3) are HTML
It's not a perfect system, but the correlation between people that has
taken the time to learn how to use e-mail and people that has something
worthwhile to say[1] is remarkable strong :-)
