Unless I missed others, it appears that you responded to a post sent by a writer that contained a great deal of older extraneous material. You did not personally attach the material, the other poster did. You probably weren't expecting it since you are a list poster and it wouldn't normally happen to you, but the tag-along material was there and the digest would contain it. Many list subscribers wouldn't even pay attention since it rides on the coat-tail of the message. Things happen, John. Only one person complained that I know of. Though others on digest who plow through mail in a digest format might well have thought a few extra unkind things about that particular post. It is why I prefer to top post my replies and why I subscribe to list mail. I can skip the extraneous at the bottom of a list post since bottom posting happens very rarely. And I almost always delete what is beneath the message I am responding to, rarely tackling the comments of a bottom or in-line poster. List subscribers can make life easier for people who insist on digest format by deleting all but the post (unless earlier posts are essential to understanding the thread) when replying to a specific post.
