It's also helpful to delete or omit clutter at the bottom of a message when posting,
if possible, or an abreviated signature line.  When replying to a digest or a long string
of emails, I like to <snip> the unrelated part of the message for others reading
pleasure, when appropriate.

 Applause for this topic and these
 suggestions. It seems to me that taking care and spending a
 few extra seconds when replying to messages requires some of
 the skills that make a good caller: consideration for your
 audience, attention to detail, careful and deliberate
 choices. By the same token, an occasional lapse is always
 forgiven graciously since we all make mistakes.
