Not at all... > When people ask for help this list expects them to stop and read a > list of rules and then re-configure their set-up in order to ask the > question Ridiculous... 1. there is no quoted text when someone asks their question initially - unless they hijack someone else's thread, which is another no-no on *any* mail list, and 2. there is no need to reconfigure anything, only a need to take an extra few seconds to position the cursor and delete unwanted/unnecessary text. > If they use MicroSoft Outlook or Yahoo then they will be told to use > a different email client for this list and probably told to set-up > a different email address too. More asinine ridiculousness, Tom, and you're being disingenuous to boot.. I had suggested possibly using a *real* mail client when it became clear that you were using Yahoo's WEBMAIL client, NOT OUTLOOK. Sorry, Tom, you have lost all credibility on this subject - you have made it abundantly clear by your words and actions that you are simply too damn lazy and arrogant to even consider that you should take a few extra seconds out of your oh-so-much-more-valuable-time-than-everyone-else's to abide by a simple and politely worded request.
