Since we're actually getting some traffic on the mailing list now it
might be a good idea to set some standards on how to post.

My personal preference is to delete all info not relevant to the
current post, and post all new comments inline or at the bottom so it
can be read from top to bottom. This seems to be the convention on a
lot of open source lists. Does anyone else here have any sort of
preference here?

Thanks,

Rick

I'd like having a prefix added to the subject.  Google groups lets you add one, like:
[Zoop] 

That would be helpful to visually pick things out of my inbox list.  I do have filtering set up, but I still like seeing it in the subject.

I'll second both of those... delete anything non-relevant, and if we
could add some sort of a prefix, maybe [zoop] or some such, that'd be
cool two.

I added the prefix so hopefully this will have [zoop-users] in the
subject. Also I prefer bottom posting to top posting in mailing lists.
