<br>I archive all of my email.
<p>Just spend, oh, 10 seconds looking at all the excess crap quoted after
the
<br>reply in most of the posts to the list, there's vast amounts of it.
Some
<br>email clients will add these replies invisibly, which sucks. I'm not
sure what
<br>to do about that. Anyone have a suggestion?
<p>There's RFCs for this, but: please delete everything which isn't what
you are
<br>directly replying to.
<p>i.e.: if you are not responding to that sentence or paragraph, delete
it.
<p>This will not greatly improve the posting to the list, but it will mean
that
<br>archives are, oh, 5% of their current size,
<p>AND
<p>your email will download a LOT faster! woo!
<p>I'm only stressed about disk space. Some of you might be stressed about
time
<br>taken reading this list.
<p>So, I'm not being a martinet, just look at the emails, and consider
the
<br>situation.
<p>uoy ees

<br>There is no god, nothing on this planet was ever built with alien technology,
and yes we did go to the moon in 1969. Get used to it.
