No-one reading your reply to their email will expect to go to the bottom of the email scanning passed their own email and read your signature to find your phone number or whatever you put in your signature.
You got it wrong. nope Nobody is expecting you to scan all of your previous email. You are expeted to DELETE all that unneeded text before you write the answer at the bottom. No. I guess you don't correspond to people in the business world very much apart from other techies. Business demand email trails. Heard of SOX? Like this email. Fine for mailing lists
I've been watching this with some amusement. This whole thread started out with someone asking how to insert signatures in a location of their own personal preference for their own personal use. Immediately there was a knee-jerk reaction with people dictating how replies are supposed to be set up for mailing lists. This thread had NOTHING to do with mailing lists. Pay attention folks! The guy wasn't going anywhere NEAR a discussion of mailing lists, and email clients are not dedicated specifically for use in mailing lists. In business, replies (and signatures) are customary on top. Enterprise solutions such as GroupWise always puts the sigs up top. The guy wanted to do that for his business correspondence. Nothing at all to do with mailing lists. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
