When I switched ISP's I re-subscribed to the Paddlewise mail list in the digest form. It is REALLY a DRAG reading through all the posts when they are posted in HTML or MIME format. It's this Yad da ya da yaw da zzzzzzzzzz that goes on for friggin' ever. IMHO I think it's pretty dumb to paste *everything* from a message into a reply, too. Save a Bandwidth or two in the process. Just me 2 centavos worth.

It is so weird because I get the correct post and then a duplicate with all the coding. I thought it was just me or aol or cc:mail or some digest/reply system. It is fine to quote the parts of the post that tell people what you are talking about. In fact, I appreciate it because this list is so busy I have a hard time keeping track of who said what. I don't need the whole post repeated. I tend to skip past all the quoting once I get the drift unless I need to go back and get details. The coding is just weird. I don't know how that gets there.
