I don't think so, since Richard isn't referring to a specific message
but rather to list behavior in general. I agree with Richard though, and
I know there are several questions I could have answered but I couldn't
figure out the context, so I just let someone else who knew what was
being referred to handle it. I guess I don't even consider it a pet
peeve anymore since I just hit the delete key, but it is good advice for
anyone who wants to get a question answered or get a response to their post.

Subject: to quote or not to quote...
This is my Pet Peeve for the month:
Those of you on this list who have there email set to not quote the previous
message make it very
difficult for those of us who want to help. If you do not explain the context
of your message, it
often leaves me scratching my head wondering what the heck the person is
replying to.
So, please consider summarizing the answer you are replying to so we might be
able to offer a
different suggestion, or set your email program to include the prior message.
Just my thoughts. I often want to assist, but have no idea what the issue is,
so I simply delete the
message.
Richard
