You are not supposed to quote the whole darn message and put one line of reply at the bottom, but rather to go through the original message and cut it down to only the most essential parts that you are replying to. By putting the cursor at the top you are in a position to start trimming as you move down through the message toward the bottom where you post your reply. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
