Please look at the above message, which I have quoted in its entirety exactly as I received it from the list. Can anyone tell, without reading it, where the original message ends and the reply begins? Or why the last lines are messed up? I notice there is also an HTML version of the message in which the quoted material is in a different colour and for some reason the extraneous footer material is absent, but this distinction is lost in the plaintext version, which many people on this list prefer for a variety of reasons. Standard practice on mailing lists is to use indented quoting, which a) sets off the quoted material even in plaintext, and b) allows multiple levels of indent for long threads of quotes within quotes. It also happens to be the default in Evolution. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
