OT: message reply formatting (was Google gmail)

I'm more annoyed by people who repeatedly quote huge messages without any  
trimming, than top posters. Having to scroll for miles to see a short  
message at the end is bad enough on a desktop, must be awful on a mobile  
device!

Anyway, I'm pretty sure that people who take care on the formatting of  
their messages, and replies to messages, gain more respect from their  
readers over time. Rather than complaining to top-posters and  
non-trimmers, I tend to moan privately and then feel sorry for them  
because they're giving out a less-than-ideal impression to the  
world/list/whatever.

The same applies to caerless tiping and speling ;)

Cheers!

Anthony
