ADMIN: Quote-trimming and other list behavior

We have to bring this back up once in a while. Thanks for reading.
TRIM QUOTES----
PLEASE, when replying to postings on the list, take the time to edit
down the part you are replying to. Just leave enough so that we can
tell what you are replying to, not the entire prior two or three
messages. It only takes a second, and makes a huge difference in the
archives and in general readability of the list, not to mention
people's download time.
CHECK SUBJECT LINE---
When replying to a digest, change the subject line to "re:
thesubject". Having the subject be an entire digest is confusing and
probably causes people to skip reading your post. Also, please pay
attention, it is normal for the subject of a thread to migrate, (like
the recent "oil filter" to "storage" thread). As you reply to these,
please change the topic to what you are talking about.
