And the number of stupid messages everyday makes me want to get away
from this verbosity as well.
A policy on who can send a dozen dumb emails a day to annoy everyone.
Sick of so much crap as well.

How do you define "dumb emails" ? And why do you top - post, leaving
us guessing what you refer to and add a list of 6 quoted footers
nobody needs.

I agree that frivolous emails on a mailing list are annoying, but
personally I tend to think that you should do some things right before
complaining about the quality of other posts.

Verbosity is quoting what is not needed, too.

Just to publish a minority opinion! I consider these sorts of exchanges entertaining and I don't mind them at all. It makes me wonder if folks know how to thread their e-mail - for me the thread "unsubscribe" takes up exactly one space with its 14 messages underneath, but hidden. I can easily open and close with my arrow keys, so ... not a big deal. Don't get me wrong, I'm not campaigning for useless messages but I don't understand the complaining either. (just for clarity, I'm referring to the first quote, not Christian's, who obviously makes good points).

Okay, maybe I should "get a life", too.  :)

cheers,
Donna
