This will be my last post about this topic. I am not gonna waste more time on this trivial issue, even if it is important to many of you.
I do not know exactly how many people reply before quoted message but over 90% of my daily emails are in this style and I can see this kind of emails all over the Internet. Maybe they are all bad-mannered people, maybe they are all corrupted by M$, I feel quite comfortable with this style and will continue to use it. In this discussion, many replies are polite and informative but others are cynical and rude, even they are written in 'good style'. I can sit down and argue with you about compared to web, ftp, mp3, rm, how much bandwidth is used for emails but I decide to quit this discussion just because many of you are too righteous to hear about it. Have a very good day. Bo
