I just need to correct English sentence to inform my correspondent to read my answer in quotes. Many people do not read quotes in the messages by the simple fact they are so accustomed to top posting answers (in the Outlook way). (e.g. a correspondant return my quoted message saying that I forgot to answer. I have to send it for a second time saying the answer is in quotes, in his message--if I make sense). If I recall the term used by a few English people around here was: answer interleaved? but I am not sure or the exact (proper) term. Apology: this msg has been sent 3 times a. direct answer, not to the list. b. to the list using my default personal email address (not member of the list), and lastly c. to the list with the correct email address (difficult to wake up this morning!) _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
