You may intend caps as punctuation, but the consensus is that capitalization in email means shouting, and will be interpreted as shouting even if you do not agree. A human language works by majority consensus, you can not change it on your own to your liking.
Sorry Carlos, but I have to disagree. Capitalizing one word creates emphasis. Captializing a sentence would be shouting. Text based email doesn't allow us to easily use underlining and bold. Caps on a single word draws the eyes to that one word, which creates the emphasis. At least, that is my opinion, and having been emailing for almost 20 years through BBS's, FIdoNet, etc, that's what I have always seen. I dunno, is there an official openSUSE word on that? Like not top posting or trying to get people to prune their quotes in consideration of those who are still on dialup? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
