I agree, one blog post + comments is more analog to one mail thread. So I like to have the same order as in blogs : threads / blog post in reverse order (most recent on top) , but inside each of them, bottom-posting / chronological order. Actually when you use a thread view, you usually get a chronological order for all mails inside a thread. If you combine that with top-posting, its a bit weird.

Actually I'm run into *MANY* of these huge long threads in a single message to have a Mee to or +1 at the bottom That's why I found that style to be so inefficient and wasting of my time. Honestly, I just scroll straight to the bottom, Evolution marks all the quoted stuff for me anyway so that the real replies stand out. With bottom-posting the wasted time is the amount of time taken to scroll to the bottom. With top posting the wasted time is having to scroll down for perspective. I'd wager a quick scroll is faster than having to scroll up and down to read and get perspective. However, in the end its more of a consensus thing. MLs generally agree on bottom-posting, and so top-posting in that context, whatever its merits, isn't good manners. Similarly bottom-posting my replies to my relatives hi how are you emails is very bad manners. To each their own. Actually when you think about it, most blogs are all in reverse chronical order which to me is the same thing as top-posting and nobody seems to complain about that concept. This is slightly off-tangent, but personally I feel blogs are less dependent on context, with each post standing on its own, whereas email threads are very context dependent as each new mail is a REPLY to the one before. Honestly, my ultimate solution would look very much like gmail's 'threaded view'. Unfortunately no desktop app that I've seen manages to get a similar handling =(. Have you heard of sup? I've never used gmail but I read sup was inspired by gmail. Well, I'm very happy with sup, bottom posting is no issue since quotes take up one line until expanded. Often you can read the original messages instead of the quotes due to the thread view. You need external apps for sending and receiving, like alpine, but setup in general seems to be much simpler. Imho it bottom posting is the way to go, with replies to paragraphs of a mail where it makes sense. For me personally it doesn't matter much, thanks to sup. The only drawback right now is that sup is still very young, it has its quirks. Never the less it's the best mail client I've used so far (used only claws mail before), especially when it comes to reading and searching and I don't regret that I switched. Regards, Philipp

[arch-general] Can you rebuild an nv dmraid array in linux - or is it just gparted and copy partitions?
Listmates I had a failing drive in my arch server so I installed a new one. The bios raid 'nvidia dmraid' provides the feature to 'Rebuild' the array and allows for adding the new disk to the array. After that configuration you are prompted to Boot to an OS that supports rebuilding.. (or something very close to that). I image that there is some windows utility that does the rebuild on boot. Something probably on one of the cd's that came with the motherboard. The motherboard is an MSI K9N2 SLI Platinum (MS-7374) and has the nvidia dmraid 0/1/5/ chipset. In the past I have always just used gparted to copy partitions from good drive - new drive and created a new array. Based on the output of creating the array in the bios, I'm curious if I can just rebuild does it work in linux? how? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
