[Ducati] NDC posting etiquette

[Chris Kelley]

Hi Kevin,

Basically, anyone that complains about others trimming their posts
needs to get GMAIL and switch to regular delivery and not digest.

Gmail is all about time management ... having to read the
same quoted text 10 or 20 times over and over because no one takes the
time to trim their posts makes the digest unbearable. And not everyone
has the time to read all the individual posts coming through.

My awesome discovery was GMAIL !!!!

Holeeeeee wow. It groups e-mails into conversations by subject. AND,
when all the lazy asses intentionally try to irk others by neglegently
failing to trim their posts, here is what you see:

your email before you send it?

Mailto: bigredxrunner at yahoo.com
- Show quoted text -

Now? I don't even care what's in the quoted text because I already
read it down the conversation. And if I want/need to see it, I can
click on - Show quoted text - and see it.

Basically, anyone that complains about others trimming their posts
needs to get GMAIL and switch to regular delivery and not digest.

I am a much happier man now,
Chris

(ps sending you a gmail invite now, too)
