I agree. I pickup and synchronise over 30 newsgroups and mailing lists on 
three different devices (2 mobile, 1 workstation), all using different 
software. Its not really a big hassle in the grand scheme of things. If I 
started to get uptight about how someone posted, Id probably think that I 
wasnt busy enough or that I needed to get out more :o)
