Hiya all
This thread seems to be pointing to the need for "List Protocol" 
document. It might be more constructive to new contributors than 
criticizing their choice of operating system ;-)

Such this as;
using Text Only (if this is indeed the preference)
Cutting those parts of a post that you aren't replying to.
Adding new comments at the end of an existing post instead of the top.
etc.

I'm sure there are some I haven't learnt yet, and some that I have 
learnt by being on the receiving end of less than constructive "flaming" 
although some might naively maintain that if they achieve their purpose 
they are constructive.

Having such a document might encourage new contributors rather than 
discouraging them for fear of making a mistake.
