Disappointed to see such a "superior" flaming attitude here after the List Owner has recently clearly stated the preference is for *top* posting.
I have been on UseNet since the beginning, on a home-made computer and have always posted with the current Newsgroup/List preferred method. There are unfortunately pedants who insist that there are **standard** posting methods. There are not. The method used is that which is preferred on the list and denigrating users as illiterate because they use one product or another is in itself 'illiterate'. I use Outlook, Mozilla, Opera and even Netscape on occasion, posting as the Newsgroup/List prefers, and suggest others do the same without looking down their superior noses. Incidentally, Outlook (Microsoft) allows both top *and* bottom posting to be used. This List is for Legacy - not pedants. Sorry Sherry, but it had to be said before this goes any further. -- Rodney HALL Heywood, Lancashire Suaviter sed fortiter Agreeably but powerfully ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://rmhh.co.uk/ http://rmhh.org.uk/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > T.
