Actually, there are quite a lot of them, including at least one RFC. I have my own (http://www.charlescurley.com/netiquette.html), and list several in the Resources section at the bottom. Try googoling on "netiquette". > How should replies be formatted? I have tried clicking on the > Reply-To link in the email, but it doesn't copy any of the original > text. Do I have something setup wrong? A smart-ass reply would be, yes, you are using Outlook. There actually is some truth to that. Outlook comes configured to not copy the original email into the reply when you hit the "reply" button. You can configure it, but (mercifully) I do not recall how. You can try mucking with the configuration. There are at least two web pages on how to set up Outlook correctly (or, as correctly as one can :-). I refer to them in my resources section at the URL above. > Does my using XP to reply have anything to do with it? No. As an intermediate solution, try moving to almost any mail reader other than Outlook. See the last article in my resources for a good article on why this is a good idea. For a long term solution, of course, move to Linux. > Thanks for any help.
