This is a re-post from sometime back in August of last year: Just a friendly reminder to all concerned, from our posting guidelines ================================================== You should include enough of the original message, (but not ALL of it), leaving enough information so that a person who did not read the original post, will have an idea of what you are talking about. When replying to a post, please remove extraneous text. This is the most often disregarded rule. Removing non-essential text will make the size of the file smaller, which helps our listmembers in other countries who must pay for their email by the time it takes to download, or by the size of the files. It also makes our digests much neater and easier to follow. =============================================== And this is a message I received a few days ago from one of your fellow listmembers: (proving to me once again that I am not the only one who is irked by the quoting of 3 or 4 messages :-)) ================================================= > Now, if you can just get a couple folks to stop quoting lines >> and lines of text. It has gotten to the point where if I am >> not in the mood or don't have a lot of time, I just delete >> messages from certain people because I know what will be at >> the beginning of their message. These people often have good >> information to offer but my time is more important to me than >> to spend it scrolling through text I have already read, in >> some cases, several times. >> >> Sorry for my rant. ================================================ So guys and gals, please take a few seconds and trim your replies...at least down to the last message!! It will only make our list better. And if you'd like to respond to this message, please do so by emailing me off-list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] (yes, that address is working again :-)) Thanks, Marlene ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
