And since the late 80's! Came in very handy when HyperCard archived some thousands of emails/files from Eudora/BBEdit/NetScape to HC stripping out the sigs, the lame content, ads, etc... Helped also for pre-formating of data, posting data, sending or writing data in or out of TAOO... I didn't just archive emails in TAOO, but code, readmes, references, etc... It helps reduce repetitive editing, stack/DB size a little and make the reading (or IO) lots easier... It shouldn't be hard to adapt to spam filtering or any other application that reads/writes/stores information for that matter... cheers Xavier http://monsieurx.com/taoo ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
RE: Signatures and quoting
well I'll just take it as disrespect if you deleted my mails based on the subject... There's a law of emailness I learned... you can't judge a mail by it's subject or author... Anything is a clue to the market... a demand or a supply of economic flow...

RE: Signatures and quoting
No disrespect intended Xavier, but your reply to my message is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. It had the message headers, the stupid Hotmail signature and the mailing-list signature quoted. I'm on the digest mode because there are many topics mentioned on the list aren't really something I'm interested (mind you there are more interesting topics than not), but with all the "garbage" in posted in the message it makes it very difficult to be able to scan through and find interesting tid-bits of knowledge and snippets of code (somedays I just look at the subject list and hit delete).. I wasn't on the digest and I received 40 emails a day that were basically bandwidth wasters I'd probably cancel my subscription to the list. Now if only email clients were smart enough to strip the signatures like they're supposed to ;-) _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

RE: Signatures and quoting
I didn't want to demonize digests. In case this is brewing the thread ;) Digests are helpful, like Tibtits was, but in the waves of mails that some of us get, it's unmanageable... If you reply often to the list, it's lots of work to clean the "topic"... (select the story in the digest, copy, select all, paste), now paste the right subject, add ">" before each line, etc...) It's too hard to manage things via digest. And I seriously would like to change how mail works at work (with the big corp legal security sig) or the spam crap that's prepended the subjects which I miss or the times when the second email in the "to:" fields gets you in an embarassing situation of some sorts (which I've missed in the past and still am subject to trip onto)... in a perfect world, one email only shows, with just a bit of good will.. this wouldn't be an issue... or your email client strips the sigs (TAOO CAN DO THIS :) And the right quote naturally... We need to see at least once what that "sripped quote" was from that user ;) I just dont see how or why people think digests are useful or practical. Can anyone enlighten me on it's advantages?
