+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; There should be a recurring reminder of the mailist and Gmane
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; list rules. There are many who are new to mailists and have
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; never had the experience in group mailist etiquette. Some
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; people find it annoying/frustrating when people top-post, quote
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; whole passages etc. But we should be happy that there is so
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; much participation. It just means that we need to every now and
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; then send out a gentle reminder of the rules. I think that the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &quot;Mailist etiquette -- gentle reminder&quot; should be posted every
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; now and then by the Mageia ML maintainer just to add a little
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; formality to the message.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Thanks to reminder this etiquette. It was quite difficult to
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; follow a thread where people top-posted and others quote all the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; mail including mailing list signature.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> Most email clients will automatically delete a correctly formatted
+</I>&gt;<i> signature block. Unfortunately, this list's signature is not
+</I>&gt;<i> correctly formatted - it should have two hyphens, followed by a
+</I>&gt;<i> space, followed by carriage return, followed by the signature
+</I>&gt;<i> contents - so users have to manually delete it.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Compare my personal signature below with the list signature above
+</I>&gt;<i> to see the formatting problem - perhaps someone with admin powers on
+</I>&gt;<i> the list setup could correct this?
+</I>
+I think that's because the ml consider that the sender signature should
+be correctly setup. IIRC, the list is running default setting of
+mailman.
+I guess I could change this, but I will first do some research after
+taking my breakfast, because there is maybe a reason to not have the
+default &quot;-- &quot; set up.
+
+Alternatively, I think the footer doesn't help much, so maybe it should
+be erased.
