If we all delete messages no one will have a clue what anyone is talking
about.  You choose your method of reading.

Subject: Can Everybody That Keeps Their Original Message Lines delete them?

Hi guys. As everybody knows, I'm writing and reading emails using 
SamNet on my Mac. When I read email from some of you, I have to read 
and read until finally I get to the next message in the thread. That's 
because some of you keep your original messages. Can you please delete 
your original messages? I like digest mode better because reading 
millions of messages in my inbox is very time consuming but reading the 
original message lines are too. So please, can you all delete your 
original messages?

I totally agree with Sieghard. I can't tell you how many times I'll see
someone respond to a thread, without including the thread, and I'll have
no idea what they're talking about. Sometimes this means I miss out on
some great tidbit, and sometimes it means, someone has a question I may
be able to answer or help with, but since I have no idea what the
context is, I can't do anything but hit the delete key. I will
occasionally delete chunks of the thread that aren't pertinent to my
response, but since I'm top posting on most of these lists, I'm not as
good about that as I should be.

I guess I don't know much about SAM Net's email client, but why can't
you read just the top posted response and then move on to the next
message in your in box?

 First of all, let me ask you why everybody would or should know that you
 read and write messages using SAM Net? Yes, it says you do in your
 signature, but not everybody may consciously read your signature and, what
 is more, remember a week later that you use SAM Net.
 
 If I reply to a message thread I do delete the messages sometimes, but if I
 feel the thread is important enough I don't. Quite often I read replies
 which seem out of context, but which are not once I review the original
 message.
 
 I don't know much about SAM Net, but from the few times I have used System
 Access to Go I noticed that it's an extremely basic email client and I would
 go as far as to say it's not really designed for reading a busy mailing
 list. I also have not seen any other list members suggesting everybody has
 to change their list behavior because it so happens that the way the read
 the list isn't convenient.
 
 If you have a Mac computer you have a rather capable mail app so why not
 setup an email address just for Viphone and maybe other lists and then use
 the mail app to read those messages. I used to subscribe also to Digest
 Mode, but I find it easier to have all messages individually go into a
 special Viphone mailbox and here I can arrow through the messages (I use
 Outlook) and if a subject doesn't interest me I delete it, if it does I read
 the message. I sometimes come home and have 50 messages from the day and it
 takes me maybe 5 minutes to review them, delete those I don't need and deal
 with the ones I do want to read or reply to.
 
 In my opinion it's up to each list member to find the best way to deal with
 the list traffic rather than asking over 1,300 people to remember to do
 things in a way that maybe convenient for the 1 SAM Net user on the list. 
 
 
 Best regards and a Happy New Year,
