Yep, not a thing in there about top vs. bottom posting or in-between posting. I do not ever attach anything to my messages without prior permission (and never to a group) and then nothing but plain text messages. And I never originate HTML-posts (but after a recent re-install of my mail reader I found that it had obligingly reset my preferences to reply-in-kind to HTML messages). My original comment was to a bloke that replied off topic to another thread since he either did not know how to start a thread or didn't care. At that point someone (who shall remain nameless) jumped all over my case about top-posting. darkroommike ---------- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karl Shah-Jenner" <shahjen@iinet.net.au> To: "List for Photo/Imaging Educators - Professionals - Students" <photoforum@listserver.isc.rit.edu> Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 9:02 AM Subject: Re: HTML was Top or Bottom?
