This is one of the reasons I like top posting. One does not need look at all the previous garbage I mean traffic that was sent previously.

Subject: Re: [iPad] trimming messages
I can sympathize but just not empathize because of the nature of which I choose to use the email group. Ala individual emails. The yahoo spam over the course of over a decade I've learned to ignore....
It's like herding costs to get ppl to trim. Case and point. It's also like herding cats to get ppl to read the archives because this topic may easily contain volumes and volumes already discussed.
But feel free to ask. I'll try to remember. But it's definitely not a rule. It's antiquated etiquette based upon limited bandwidth of 2600 baud modems and compuserve, IMO.

It is not pleasant to read most messages on this list on an iPad. A single short, "me, too" reply also travels with a dozen earlier similar messages that have not been trimmed. If you don't want to bother trimming the whole previous thread, why not use the Reply to Group option in a Fully Featured Yahoo message and save the rest of us from the LONG threads? I feel for anyone trying to read on a digest.
