I quoted a total of no more than 1-4 lines in each of my postings in the above-mentioned threads. Quoting is necessary to show context for non-digest readers. Maybe you just quoted everyone in the digest post for the day, but it read like a list of offending users/posts, FYI... Personally, I bottom-post most of the time, except in Email replies to top-poster's Emails... At the same time, I have to change Thunderbird's default 'bottom post' behavior to 'top post', as I start looking at the email from the top, and trim, quote, and reply where appropriate leaving just enough quote to set context. -- Derek _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
