[Dixielandjazz] What do we mean by "Trim Your Posts?" Re: NY Times article on Ear Regulars

[David M Richoux]

Hi all,

See all that e-junk that came along with the messages from "Baglady4?"

Remember all the e-mail addresses, headers and footers and other stuff  
you forgot to remove from a forwarded message? Or a reply to a daily  
digest that is huge?

This can all be solved by getting back to the basics - send plain  
text, also look at the message before you post it and delete all the  
unwanted garbage that might be surrounding your pithy comment or witty  
reply!

Sending something from a newspaper website's invitation to "Share This  
Story" usually does not work out well for e-mail on DJML - it is a  
very basic mail list server and does not understand much of the newer  
HTML codes, so it is much better to "copy and paste" plain text.

Some of us, even in the modern super-fast fancy Internet world are  
getting e-maill on our cell phones and actually get charged for every  
single byte of data!
