But to what part of my mail did you answer to? To the sig? *SCNR*. Placing
an answer below the whole original mail w/o thinking is as bad as top
posting.
I'll put it here to keep you happy, but IMO, if the body of the
message discusses a singular idea, then replying after the signature
should be somewhat imo acceptable. But admittedly, you do have quite a
sizable signature ;) ( compensating for something? :P jk ) .
Admittedly, I think how you handle interleave/bottom posting should be
case dependent.
Im still debating with myself at what stage (if at all) you cull out
the old message when it gets deep in reply chains in order to
economize on message size for clients which don't automatically hide
that which is irrelevant in context by automatic comparison to the
previous message :), or whether stripping out a signature from a
message is potentially damaging intellectual property :)
Bye...
