This is an example of bottom posting. In other words, my reply is posted at the bottom of the message. Which to use is a subject that takes on an almost religious fervor.
Proper bottom posting includes removing of superfluous text from the previous post; without doing that it is as bad as top posting.
A couple other things that can get you yelled at on this list is sending html mail and hijacking a thread. Hijacking is changing the topic being discussed without changing the subject line.
X'-) No, a hijack is attempting to post a new post to a list by hitting reply on any email from the list, changing the subject, and usually also removing the previous content. To the poster it appears as a new email, but it is not: it is a reply, and mail programs record that fact for ever. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
