In this example, Nick's comment to Adam pointed out the problem as the list footers (the bit saying which version, who to contact etc) was also put in the reply, duplicating information that is under the hammer for discussion at the moment for bandwidth usage. > Is it something in TB that bothers people and I > am not catching on to what it is? Not something in TB itself, it is just general usage of emails. If you notice how my replies are formated to your emails, you'll notice how I am snipping stuff that I find irrelevant to my replies, or trimming down parts that are to save space, and make the point a little clearer. > Eudora, Pegasus, Netscape, > Outlook, Outlook Express, and whatever others, use top replies > (without colorization) and it doesn't seem to cause problems on > any of my other mailing lists. Colourisations can be turned off I believe under the Options - Preferences somewhere, I cannot remember the exact location. > Comments about it are only made here, > and I somehow am not zeroing in on precisely what the problem is. Some of us like to read a conversation as if they were being had at the time, makes flowing of ideas a little better. Take the analogy of hearing the punchline of a joke before hearing the beginning of it. It makes the punchline out of context until the actual joke is said, then the person has to think back to the punchline to understand it again. -- Jonathan Angliss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) PGP Keys : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=SendKeys ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.61 FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/
