Some of our recent threads have generated a lot of back and forth
discussion. That's good, but as the messages get longer please cut off the
parts that are no longer relevant. One recent post was a few hundred lines
long. Some of it was no longer relevant and most of it was automated
footers generated by the mailing list and the sender's software.
For many people it's not a big deal but it can become an issue in 2
situations that I can think of:
People who are on slow connections end up spending a lot of time downloading
what is repetitive and no longer helpful.
People who use digest mode have to hunt for relevant additions. It can be
difficult to find the beginning/end of each message when hundreds of lines
are repeated.
Thanks,
