If you think it boring to remind others of good manners, then so be it. Oh never mind *PLONK* I bet you did not plonk me. [Franz Heymann] Perhaps she's gone for a drink? Grin |

Question. If this post was cross posted in the first place, Anne mentioned several gardening groups it showed up on... is it still being cross posted? I'm posting on rec.ponds here. k30a and the watergardening labradors http://www.geocities.com/watergarden...ors/index.html |

Unless you take care to remove the extraneous groups, any "group reply" will
go to all the groups that received the post to which you are replying. You can tell by looking closely at the To: list for each message. These things can really deteriorate fast because suddenly posters of a particular group are seeing posts from strangers, etc., and so on. To confuse this issue even more, we've suddenly picked up another "anne" (gasp!) here in rec.ponds! What's the big complaint about top posting, anyway? Unless there are multiple parts to debate, it makes a *lot* more sense to me -- at least it's much easier to figure exactly who the current poster is.

I feel like we are eavesdropping on some other groups squabble. ;-) k30a and the watergardening labradors http://www.geocities.com/watergarden...ors/index.html |

I've seen this complaint for years and don't know what it is? Is it when everything ever written in a thread comes first and then the reply is waaaay down there at the very end? k30a and the watergardening labradors http://www.geocities.com/watergarden...ors/index.html |
