I belong to and run a number of listservs going back nearly 20 years. Many lists I am on (or have been on) have the "though shalt not top post" commandment. There is a sound reasoning for it. While I don't personally care whether a person top posts or bottom posts, it has been the rule on this list as long as I can remember. To specifically mention another list, I used to be on the SuSE Linux English list that had the same rule. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@xxxxxxx> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
