[thelist] eMail Edits please!

[Ron]

There is no correct way to post to a mailing list. This topic comes up 
endlessly on email lists, people argue about it for a while then drop 
it, wait a year or so and repeat. Everyone has different preferences. I 
prefer to click into the middle of a thread, if it interests me, and 
catch up on the whole thing by scrolling just that one message and not 
having to click into each individual message. 

cheers
