Hi Dz-Jay,

@3-Oct-2003, 06:41 -0400 (03-Oct 11:41 UK time) DZ-Jay [DJ] in
mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to Marck:

No I don't. It's in the list rules. If we all stick to the rules,
it's better for everyone. If we let one person break the rules, then
the next person with "only a two line sig" says "you didn't say that
to the guy with the one line sig" and suddenly it's a free-for-all.
I am personally indifferent about the cut mark rule but Leif is not
and I support him fully, mostly for the reason I just stated. This
is not about opinions. It's about what works best.

No. If the list server adds the footer because it contains important
information. We want the footer inserted, but not quoted in replies.

DJ> Come on!

Perhaps you have a lack of understanding. Perhaps you're just
spoiling for a fight. Whatever, you're clearly not in a helpful mood
today :-(. It would certainly have been better to say this privately
to the moderators or not at all than to confuse the issue as you
have chosen to do.
