Forget it :( Only a rather small number takes netiquette serious. This list, sad as it is, is IMHO nearing the point where it gets unreadable because of so much full quote, top posting and other violations of the netiquette.
I've just given up and mostly ignore such mails.

You and I both. This list is still one of the finest and more netiquette abuse-less ones out there, but as you say, it seems to be going downhill slowly. Some people may say 'it's just top-posting, no big deal' (or whatever), but then why have *any* netiquette at all then, is what I ask back, let's just have anarchy and see how long anyone really seems to get *any* info at all from anyone else. Like you say, it's a sad thing to see it slowly and sadly riding off into the sunset. I have begun to once in a while (in an M$ NG), do as another poster to this list does...I'll put a line at the top telling them that I fixed their lazy top-posting, heh.
