DO CLIP/TRIM REPLIES!

It's not about you or me (WAAAAY too narcissistic/self-absorbed). It's about the archives and actually having intelligible/readable search results. In other words, it's about ALL of us here and now, and those who join in the future. If you don't like reading thru your 26 emails to then understand what's been posted then find another site that suits your personal preferences or just monitor this one and sit and learn.

CLIP/TRIM your posts....example follows.

How each of us deals with our email accounts is a personal preference and, at least in my case, needs no supervision/advice. When someone wants/needs something from me, they make a sentence with my name/group at its beginning, with a ? at the end.
