But If I get your answer on the top, HOW can I know, to what are you replying? Specialy if the thread was not trimmed before? If I get post with untrimmed threads I hit <d> and thats all. > If it is multi-part then I prefer a _very_ short intro and the > rest in-line where the reply is in context. > > It is a royal pain to scroll through 100+ lines to find a two or > three word response. What a waste of bits and time. The one, WHO sends the message should trimm all unneccesary lines and leave only a minimum to fot th right context.
