Can you have a look at your raw message source, this is what I saw in your previous one (minus all the headers for where the mail went through). I see no gap between quote and reply, and a - -- signature separator. I know Thunderbird is fond of not posting things as you typed them, nor showing things exactly as they are received. They're just two reasons why I won't use it. ------------ beginning of my paste --------------- X-Enigmail-Version: 0.95.1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-RedHat-Spam-Score: 0 X-loop: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Updates X-BeenThere: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: junk Reply-To: For users of Fedora <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> List-Id: For users of Fedora <fedora-list.redhat.com> List-Unsubscribe: <https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list>, <mailto:fedora-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe> List-Archive: <https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list> List-Post: <mailto:fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> List-Help: <mailto:fedora-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=help> List-Subscribe: <https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list>, <mailto:fedora-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=subscribe> Sender: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx Errors-To: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx Status: O X-UID: 79917 Content-Length: 1370 X-Keywords: X-Evolution-Source: imap://tim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Tim wrote: > On Thu, 2007-06-14 at 12:22 -0600, Karl Larsen wrote: >> I had to load a new FC6 on my laptop and when I brought it up the >> Package Updater told me there was 277 Updates!

I have watched, and I admit that I have actually replied, to this poster in the beginning. I have yet to see him acknowledge or reply to anything. Everything is a 'big deal' or a disaster or something. Nothing works well or is as it should be with Fedora Core 6 or Fedora 7. Sniff... Sniff...
