An archive of all past discussions on the list is available on the Internet in two forms. One version is text-only, separated by months . The other is at Yahoo , and was created by Michael Mee. Your mail software may automatically attribute quoted material to its author. So please take care to remove the name of the author.
Many people tend to quote whole articles to which they're replying.
Often mail software assumes this is what you want to do, and thus puts the full article to which one is replying in the message composition window. Please try to restrict quoting to the points of articles to which you wish to respond. I would appreciate it if people followed that guideline. I have written macros to delete sig files longer than this, as part of my effort to trim the files for the archives. Posting Medline And Other Abstracts of Published Articles To the best of my knowledge, this is illegal.
