OK, it needs to be said again: CLIP OFF EXCESS QUOTES

OK, it needs to be said again: CLIP OFF EXCESS QUOTES

2005-02-05 by njfranknj

Maybe you don't think this applies to you, but the latest digest has
some egregious examples of mutliple useless, digest-clogging quotes,
re-quotes and re-re-quotes! Please don't just send your replies with
all the junk, Yahoo boilerplate and other stuff, attached.

Maybe you don't see it, but I sure do in my digest format: easily 1/4
to 1/3 of the message volume I see is useless quotes and re-quotes
from previous messages. Please take the few seconds necessary to
remove all the trash at the bottom of quoted and re-quoted messages.

Thank you

Frank
