Hello.
I'm afraid, I need original messages to know what has been discussed as I
read mail as it comes in if the topic is interesting. As I travel about,
meaning that I'm at work most of the time as I work full time, I have to
read all what I read as quickly as possible as I don't think my superiors
would like to see me stuck to my I phone, so I do it discretely using my
Apex so please don't tell on me! I delete all that I've read so if I did
not have the original message I'd not know what was being discussed.
Kawal.

Part of the trouble is that many of us check our email more than once or
twice a day, so we may have long since deleted a message to which a reply
has just arrived. This means that, often, the message is confusing with no
context, and the only way to get that context is to read the original
message the new one quotes. I agree that message rules are a good way of
dealing with high-traffic lists. I've set up a filter in gMail to send
apple-related messages to my apple folder, so I just open mail on the mac,
hit cmd-2 (I've put the folder in my favorites), and am presented with all
the apple mail I have received. This is, I find, a much better solution
than digest mode, since I can respond to any message yet still keep my
inbox less cluttered.

I've had the same problem in the past on several lists. What I have done
to alieviate the trouble is set up a separate mailbox folder for each
list and make a email rule to send list messages into their own folders.
I can then easily go through all the list messages one by one without
opening them, but by the subject decide whether to delete them or keep
them for reading.
It works, and good luck getting people to comply with your request, in my
experience, it ain't going to happen. Better to have separate folders for
list messages in my opinion.

Dear list,
Could people please try and ensure they are not quoting conversation
history or previous posts in their posts.
I receive the threads in digest mode, and Mail therefore doesn't block
out the quoted conversation history. It makes it really difficult when I
have to read through the whole conversation history every time to get to
the next post. Especially as this keeps getting longer and longer, it can
become a nightmare for the really popular threads.
I'm sure this is an issue for other people as well, and for viewing on
the website.
So please, please, either edit Mail preferences so it doesn't
automatically quote the original message, or just select all (Command-A)
and then delete before you type your reply. Given that most email
services these days support conversation threading, I'm not sure what the
point is anymore of quoting the original messages. But if it's something
you really love to do, then please just delete it for this particular
list.
Many thanks in advance and kind regards,
Nic
