Good afternoon,

You refer to this as a technical list. I see this as a users' list. Here is the heading from [email protected]

*evolution-list -- General discussion and user queries of Evolution*

If this list is now a technical list, can you refer me to an Evo users' list?

The last thing that I want to do while seeking help on a software package is to offend the list format police or use the wrong list.

    The issue of top, bottom or interspersed postings will exist for

    bottom line immediately. The context advantage of bottom posting
    is good but to read the bottom line I have to take a couple of
    extra key strokes. The above example of interspersed posting
    speaks for itself. To be honest I do not bother reading most
    bottom posted messages

    Telling someone not to bottom post without even a welcome or
    salutation is in itself rude.


1) He answered your question before *politely* asking you not to top-post. 2) Your comment on interspersed posting does indeed speak for itself, since that's the preferred way to answer mail on technical lists such as this one. Or did you mean something else?
