Re: LITH PRINTS OF IR- NEGATIVES

["Tim Rudman" <tim.rudman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Tim & others,

Could all of you take a bit more care in cutting down the quotes?

More than one admin footer (one quoted, one added by majordomo)
simply means sloppy quoting, in most cases triggered by replying
above the quote....in which case people don't even look at the
quote.

I know very well this reverse-quoting problem is mailer-related, as
several crappy mailers invite people to reply on top by starting with
empty lines, and to add injury to insult these mailers also quote
entire headers instead of just a simple 'On date yyy, xxx wrote:'.
It also makes replies for the next person quite annoying....they need an
entire cut&copy operation to create a meaningful next reply.
Long quotes also make digests hard to read....

So please cut down your quotes and try to reply in normal order,
quote first, reply next.
Not a personal attack, just something worth mentioning from time to
time....I put far more blame on those crappy mailers than on any
individual....;-((

Will try to remember this Will. Both my last two messages to Jaap were supposed to go to him rather than the group, as they were replies to personal messages to me. I don't know how they ended up in going to the group.
I am pretty sure I clicked 'reply to author'.
personally I prefer to see the answer first - saves me trawling through a message I have already seen, maybe several times. But I'm easy either way (if I don't forget)
