<div dir="ltr">Hi all, <br> I'm sure people on the list are very wise compared to a fool like me. But still I'm going to try again to show and perhaps have feedback as to why its not a good idea to just hit Reply and do top-posting. <br>
<br>The contents of this mail from what I have seen so far is going to become India Digest, Vol 22, Issue 26. <br><br>Now, let's assume that some of the people have made their subscription digest mode, which means they will get <br>
the India Digest , Vol 22, Issue 26 which will contain this thread/subject alongwith others. <br><br>1. When we write some subject, that subject becomes a potential start of a topic/thread and its easier if the same subject is used . <br>
<br>In fact its easier for me to find out giving a combination like "Scalability" or "deployments" and saying "Ananya" or "Satish" or whomsoever one needs to find out in the archives. If it becomes Re: India Digest , Vol 22, Issue 25<br>
then its much more difficult. <br><br>2. Its a great/good practise to trim unnecessary parts of the mail :- Its not a great idea to have the whole mail in your answer or for that matter the whole digest. <br><br>Why? So many a times there is a big possibility of not knowing where your content is. Sometimes people forget to add the content and stuff. <br>
<br clear="all">3. Somebody told me they use Outlook or Outlook Express (offline) and this is the easiest method. Yes, its true, I use gmail and its easier to do that but this is neater, nicer . <br><br>How am I supposed to teach (forget teaching, share anything ) if I start to cut corners on such simple things. And believe me, at the start it may take time, but once you get the feel of doing things in a slightly different way, its a 2 minute thing and the results are there for postierity (or till either the list or google is up ) . <br>
