Subject:RE: Stupid email disclaimers and WASTED SPACE From:"Jones, Donna" <DJones -at- zebra -dot- com> To:<techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Wed, 22 Feb 2006 09:05:00 -0600
I was on digest for a while, but it was so full of useless disclaimers
and repeated text that it was all but unusable. One message could easily
contain two or three screens worth of repeated text at the bottom,
making it difficult to find where the next actual message started. I
went back to getting messages individually just so I could more easily
ignore the junk.
For those who haven't figured it out, you don't need to include the
entire message that you're replying to. At the very least, the rest of
us don't need to see your unsubscription information or the stupid
e-mail disclaimer from the person who you're replying to.
Please trim your replies! :-)
