That's fine, we all had to learn some time. It's just that for some of us that time was so long ago we tend to forget it. In any case, let me reiterate (as stated by Pete): - Don't top-post on the list. - Do trim your messages to remove unnecessary material. This includes the standard footer lines which we've all seen a gazillion times. In Evolution this is extremely easy to do "right": just select the specific part of the message you want to comment on before hitting Reply. Lo and Behold, the text you selected is automatically quoted and everything else disappears. It's almost as if someone actually designed it that way :-) - Don't post in HTML unless there's a real reason for it (hint: on this list there is never a real reason for it).
