Fellow listers;
I imagine some (many) do not receive the list via digest mode. I also
imagine that most subscribers do have digest mode activated since,
unless you typically respond to more than one message, it is the most
efficient way to read the daily messages, especaiily if your
participation is limited to reading only (most folks).
When a digest mode subscriber does respond they invariably hit reply
then cmd A in the body / delete before typing a response which erases
the daily digest of messages leaving only the respnse mesage or post.
[ Yes - there are other ways to accomplish the same thing.]
This is good netiquette otherwise reading the list messages becomes
almost impossible as the entire digest contents itself is included in
every reply AND every reply to that reply !
What had been a minor annoyance here in the past has literally exploded
in the past few weeks and I second Dans' request to to think check
you message content briefly before hitting the send button and include
only your message. Then I for one can at least follow the thread.
thanks
John Dunne
