Specifically, there were many discussions over the years about the "no top-posting" rule (which I'm personally fine with in most cases) as well as the requirement to merge multiple responses into one (which I'm absolutely not fine with, and think is completely counter-productive). Limiting the number of posts to 2-3 also makes absolutely no sense during a discussion - although not necessarily responding to each and every email usually does make sense. Zeev
