[LEDE-DEV] List Prefix

[Ted Hess]

Ha! As a veteran top-poster and victim of Windows Live Mail when I respond sometimes, I take exception to your statement below.  Of 
course, when I am using that slick *ix mail apps, I can look like the rest of you folks.

I guess all these years in the industry being a top-poster makes me clueless. Feh!!!

ps - I top-posted this on purpose. ;)

I may figure a top-poster is a noob, but I don't automatically ignore
things from noobs, because I remember I was a noob once, and in many
communities, if I joined, I'd be a noob again, so I don't knee jerk
ignore emails.  I also don't knee jerk ignore badly written email,
because when I'm (e.g.) in a hurry, flustered, or distracted, I also
write horrible mails, but that doesn't necessarily mean there isn't a
point worth reading.
