1) It's "common" because most people do not use mailing lists and never used the usenet. They first used email post-2000 and never learned proper netiquette. That doesn't mean it's right. It just means these people are ignorant and keep behaving the way they want to after joining a mailing list - instead of following the established netiquette for such lists. 2) I hate to have to lecture you, but you need to learn proper quoting - reading your mails is painful. If your MTA doesn't do proper quoting, use a different one. 3) IMO, repeated failure to obey these rules should result in a ban from the list - this is not kindergarten, people should at least try to behave.
