subject: Quoting from messages

Hello Everyone,
This is the Moderator speaking. A small reminder about "Netiquette"...
When replying to a message quote _ONLY ENOUGH_ of the message to remind
others of the context of the message you are responding to. Quoting the
whole message (or most of it) and adding only a few lines of response is
bad manners.
In FidoNet, most systems are voluntarily run by Sysops who must pay the
phone bills. Unnecessary quoting increases the size of the mail
transported, which means longer connect times, which means bigger phone
bills.
Do you like your Sysop? Do you like FidoNet?
Please support FidoNet by controlling your quotes. EDIT YOOR REPLIES!
