Re: Reply to group keeps including the original message

 

As I stated, for each response, you can see the?portion?of the thread that they responded to, which usually suffices for understanding the context of what they sent.?

Unless you throw away the emails you don't read, you can always go back and read the other emails if you need to, so it's not always the case that you need to go back to the website to read the full history of the discussion.

Anyway, I suppose this comes down to personal taste in the end, and I just wanted to point out that some folks like the untrimmed messages.

FWIW, I like seeing the full history of the current thread up to the msg that the member is responding to.
This is the usual argument, but it doesn't really hold water.

One person posts a message. Five people reply to it. They may quote the original, but they don't quote each other. You've already lost 67% of the thread.

I don't want to overstate this, and acknowledge that it's all but unavoidable. But the fact remains that the only way to see a topic in full context is to read it online.
