Yes, you've posted a long rant telling us how much top posting, "URGENT HELP PLS!!!", and long signatures piss you off...
and i mention it because top posting (and HTML posts) are easily the most common aggravations, not only on red hat-related mailing lists, but on most mailing lists of which i'm a member. and if new members could be told right up front not to do such things, the world would be a better place.
feel better now?
