[Aroid-l] list protocol

From: john s smolowe <johnssmolowe at pacbell.net> on 2007.06.29 at 17:41:42(15903) hi steve - thanks for protecting the list archive, and thanks for the reassurance that's it's protected. regarding my other point, asking that others quote only the portion of a previous post that interests them (rather than just hitting reply), i do appreciate that you are already offering your caution "When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific" i do understand that expanding this to a bunch of rules might be annoying. yet, i still find the messages hard to parse. which part is the new message? which part is an old message being quoted? even replying to your post puzzled me. i usually put replies above the message i quote; you replied to me below my message (actually you quoted me in the body of your reply, but at the top of the body). do i put my reply to you above or below your message? i'm not fussy. i just can't figure out who wrote what when on many of the threads. best, john +More 1.

Only Aroid-L subscribers get our posts, and only subscribers can access the new list archive we've started on the Gizmoworks server (although the Hort.net archive of Aroid-L is public!). Of course, when you're a listowner, you just have to accept a large daily helping of spam as part of your e-mail diet ....
