Netiquette

Hey all, I wanted to make a humble suggestion. I am new to this list, however I have noticed a lot of no-no's on this list. Some common things NOT to do when being a part of a news/mail group are: 1. Never top post. If your email client (Outlook/OE) starts your reply at the top then just cut and past it to the bottom. It is a pain and also silly logic to have to read a message from the bottom up. 2. Never post in HTML. HTML is a waste of bandwidth for email and can carry viruses. At work I use Outlook, however at home it I use Mutt or Sylpheed which are plain text e-mailers. For email sent from work I make Outlook use plain text. Please don't flame me, these are just my opinions on how to make this high volume list more enjoyable.
