Could everyone, please, learn how to quote [1 and 2]? Could we use plain text in our emails (this is not too important, but it will help)?

I normally feel the same way, but I have learned to love other peoples sloppy e-mail practices. I subscribe to more mailing lists then I have time to read, and find the following rules quite useful when deciding to read or skip a message. I quite simply skip messages that:

1. are top-posted;

or

2. quotes excessively;

or

3. are HTML

It's not a perfect system, but the correlation between people that has taken the time to learn how to use e-mail and people that has something worthwhile to say[1] is remarkable strong :-)
