Not the end of the world if they trim messages before sending them?
It means you can click a line and type there, no need to press enter a few times first.
Not email, but if I'm taking notes in a text editor I will hold down enter at the start to ensure I can just click and type anywhere.
Now, if that pointless whitespace is being sent, I can imagine it annoying people in long email chains.
I'm not sure why you would need to start an email from halfway down the page? I'm not sure I'm understanding you but I feel like I'm on the verge of having my mind blown about how the other half write emails ๐คฃ Please explain further, I'm genuinely curious!
For me, I write things from top to bottom. If I want to do a later paragraph then I will simply write it in, then go back to the top and hit enter to create a new line
Mostly top to bottom. But sometimes I write the body of the email, then add all the plesentarys after.
Or even write the email, then work out who it's 'to' on the huge cc list...
