filePro List Uses

Note: top Post

Advantage: Quick and easy - no scrolling down.

Disadvantage:  difficult to follow when answering more than one comment or line, etc.  also, someone new to the thread might, would miss the reason for a particular response.

Although I top post to most of my emails, those are to a very limited number of people and usually are on a specific subject.  The top posts make it easy to follow the responses.

The only problem run into is when someone changes the topic and doesn't change the subject line.

The other issue which seems to be disappearing is the email format,  plain text vs HTML or something else.
