I agree. I use GMail and it is my habit on this list to first delete the blank lines at the beginning that Gmail adds, then scan through the message trimming as necessary, finally adding my thoughts at the bottom, right above where Gmail has helpfully inserted my signature. It's not hard, but it's something you have to learn and force yourself to do. -- Sam -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
