I like having the original attached. It prevents me from having to bounce around from message to message. Robert Peterson mailto:[log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: John C. Schultz [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 1999 9:12 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] Including original message in responses - NOT Would people please NOT include the original message in their response. After all we have already seen the original posting - right? I get digest format and seemingly at least half of the lines in any particular digest are the original message. Sometimes repeated several times. This makes it extremely difficult for me to scan through the messages for interesting information since I have to scan threaded responses and irrelevant header information. ############################################################## TechNet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8c ############################################################## To subscribe/unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the body: To subscribe: SUBSCRIBE TECHNET <your full name> To unsubscribe: SIGNOFF TECHNET ############################################################## Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information.
