Good point, but how this happens exactly depends completely on what you use for your email software. For example, I use and recommend Pegasus Mail and it has no "Reply All" option. Instead I pick "Reply" and then I get a popup box where I get to check which addresses to include. Toby and I are in complete agreement about duplicate replies being redundant and annoying. And while we're at it, let me add my monthly reminder to everyone to remember to use your delete key to get rid of excess quoted material before you send replies back to the list server. Now that Greg has the archive search engine working again, it should be clear that excess quoting can generate excess false "hits" in a search. So it benefits all of us to keep our replies concise. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
