[Amc-list] TRIM POSTS WHEN REPLYING -- please...

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx>]

When replying to a topic please remember to trim all the stuff after 
what you're replying to (and before if necessary). Repeating the entire 
list digest when you reply just makes for a large file for no reason.

What I've started doing is clicking on the underlined/highlighted list 
address (amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx) and copying just the message I'm 
replying to. I copy from the date down to the end of whatever is 
pertinent to my reply then paste that in the new window that comes open 
from clicking on the address. Then I cut the subject and paste that in 
the subject line, and cut any lines that aren't needed, leaving the date 
and from lines. Sounds like a lot, but I find it easier than finding and 
cutting the extra text when I hit "reply".
