bottom posting question
I use lyx exclusively in my law practice. I like this list but find reading through the lyx posts in order to get to the bottom tiring. Perhaps,while sticking to bottom posting, the sender of a replying email should be encouraged to delete a portion of the prior text no longer necessary, keeping enough to maintain context? This would speed up browsing by those lurking around (like me) without violating the bottom posting requirement. Frankly, I almost always read posts by Dr Eberhard W Lisse as he doesn't usually bottom post and is very lyx- knowledgeable.
