why is that - that the original doesn't arrive for some of us?? ________________________________ From: Chartered Library and Information Professionals [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Dobson, Malcolm Sent: Monday, July 10, 2006 10:43 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Plea for less historical junk at the bottom of people's email s. & frequently on this list the reply comes before the original message (as this one did - not my reply, that is, but Andrew's) so it's useful to see the original messsage with the reply. Sometimes the original message doesn't arrive at all.

Dear All mmm, I would disagree on usability grounds, I usually don't have time to read all the messages as they come in on every list I scan (around 15-20), and it is really convenient to read the last one to arrive, and skim down the whole thread of comments.

Dear list users, In our CILIP in London branch we were recently encouraged not to leave lots of old material at the bottom of our emails. I think this is a good idea. If people want to see what other people said before then they can easily do so in other ways, but, especially when receiving the list in digest format, it is exasperating to have to scroll through lots of material that you have already read to have to get to the new stuff. So I would like to encourage people to delete previous material from the bottom of emails so that it is easier to read the exciting new information and opinions that we really do want to share.
