I hadn't looked at the guidelines for ages, but it *does* help *some* people actually pay attention to following them when it gives some *reasons* why "interspersed" is preferred on mailing lists like these (because reading the email in straight-through manner is like following a coherent conversation, with answers in response to questions), and not top or bottom posting (because it becomes incoherent and huge). And the guidelines *does* that in "if you are replying to messages," and "proper posting style." Unfortunately people do not read them, or don't bother to follow them. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
