[Elecraft] Crikey! Please edit replies down to a minimum size and delete extra footers
When replying to emails on the list, please remember to edit down the copied text to the minimum needed to retain context. One or two sentences from the original post are usually sufficient. This keeps the list and archive volume down and makes everything much more readable. *** Don't forget to delete the list footer message too or you will have multiple copies of it in your reply. A large part of our readers get the list in daily digest mode. When large amounts of previous posts are copied over and over it makes the digest very large and virtually unreadable. Also, many of our readers outside the U.S. pay for email by the kB and are using slower modems. Brevity in your posts helps a lot there. :-) 73 from your friendly Elecraft list manager Eric Elecraft.com __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Might it be in order for folks reeplying to a digest message change the subject line to that of the thread, rather than the digest number? 73 Thom k3hrn __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
