What did he say when you asked what he meant by this? I mean, how on
earth could it possibly be patronising?
I'm guessing your nephew isn't subscribed to any mailing lists.
Would I be correct in that he uses Windoze and outhouse as a mailer?
Of course I could be completely wrong, it is just a guess, but I am
intrigued as to how he could find inline responses annoying ... unless
... his client doesn't handle it properly.
I must admit reading mail from yahoo and outhouse mailers is difficult
at the best of times, and is perhaps one reason why top posting is
preferred.
