Pay by the minute for connection time? You're getting screwed.

Greetings to all.
I hope no one will take offense to this request. Today in my mail, along
with
the usual numerous classiccmp posts, were three
messages of a very
large size. These three messages totalled 275 KB. AFAICT the original
post
quoted an entire digest, and the replies then quoted
the original message
in
full.
Will you please trim your posts? Many list-members pay by the minute for
connection time. I myself use legacy micros to handle my mail; multiple
large posts cause severe constipation in these boxes . . .
TIA,
Glen
