Hi Nickie,
*shrug* I guess it depends on the newsgroup or email list, the rules they set up, how strictly or not those rules are supported, and the group of people reading and posting to that group.I don't think I've brought this issue up on this ng previously, but Mirjam's request triggered the realization that I had been deleting many posts without reading them simply because of posting responses at the bottom of extensive quoted text.
Cheers
David
