[wplug] Re: A gentle reminder on posting etiquette

We should probably post links to some well-written rules on list etiquette 
on the web site so we have something to direct people to.



Greg Sez....

Is it really etiquette or are we trying to minimize duplication for the 
email digest?  I have a hard time being offended over whether comments are 
posted at the top or bottom.  It is good to keep the messages short for the 
purposes of following it.

In my little microsoft world, I am very accustomed to hitting the reply 
button and typing above the entire thread.  In fact, I get horribly confused 
when I get email from folks at AOL which seems to default to drop the 
previous parts of the thread and I can be totally lost over what the subject 
of the comment is.

So please clarify whether the rules you are debating are to avoid some sort 
of offense or to save bytes of storage on the WPLUG mail server.
