There's a productive way to have this discussion? It's been going on far too long for me to believe it'll ever be productive. -- Avi Greenbury </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> I have seen Mailing List fragment into various lists, ie. Top Post List, Bottom Post List and Inline Quoted List. Just sheer stupidity and very damaging in my opinion. These sorts of discussions NEVER add anything productive and in many cases, where some people only have slow connections and don't want to waste bandwidth, the list looses membership and ultimately knowledge.
