Guest guest Posted April 21, 2001 Report Share Posted April 21, 2001 I suspect what you are seeing is responses in which the responder copied the entire initial letter, and prior string to which it was attached (which usually shows as >, >>, >>>, etc. in the left margin) (or worse yet, the entire digest) into the response. If that is the case, there is nothing you - as the reader - can do about it. It is under the control of the person posting - and it does seem to be worse lately. I just watch for the string of >, >>, >>>, etc. to end as I scroll by on the fly. It is helpful (and I believe has been suggested before) for responses to include copy only the relevant portion of the message to which they are responding. When you respond, you can either cut and paste the relevant portion into your response, or if your server automatically copies everything, use the select and delete functions to delete the irrelevant portions.

These messages that keep repeating are causing me to not want to scroll through everything. Is this bothering anyone else? Any suggestions?
