Sorry, now I have to opt in again. The OP claimed that top-posting in forums is common practise. I never have seen top-posting in a forum, this is ridiculous. There are no or at least only unused mailing lists for the office software "normal" people use, so no evidence for the OP's claims. I agree, usually people get help on mailing lists, even if they quote multiple copies of signatures, use HTML and ignore sane quoting style, but at some point, when mails get to long, it becomes impossible to help, without puzzling around. This was explained to the OP and now he's spiteful. I recommend not to continue this discussion. Seemingly the OP thinks we would get excited and he seems to like this. Unlikely that people who use mailing lists for a long time get excited by such nonsense. We tried to explain why it's useful not to top post and if he won't take care about it any discussion just is wasting time and cause useless traffic. If you continue, than perhaps by a new thread. People might google for "Evolution on 64 bits Linux system" and find this off-topic. 0.02 EUR _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
