I suspect that since > they top-post, they only read the top part of mail... I would hazard a guess that they came to Linux from MS Windows where the software defaults to top posting. Since I have interests outside of Linux and often post on other lists, I try to conform to the list norm. I'm from the camp that believes there is no right answer to many of these issues, only a guideline. The fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx is a way to get answers. Many of the posters are new to Linux. Responses to their questions should help guide those new to Linux while gently offering up the preferred usage (as many do.) I would offer up that one of the netiquette should be "Don't flame someone for misuse. Instead constructively suggest better ways to the person." -- Clifford Snow
