And I totally have no say in that. (And it sucks royally that midway through writing a reply, I'd forget what exactly was written in the email I'm replying through, necessitating a 'Save Draft', back to reading the email, then 'Resume Draft'). But now I've pulled my emails to my E72-1's native email client, and I can now properly bottom-post, with a caveat: I have to manually insert the '>' to indicate the quoted original email. Oh well. >I just wonder if there is some setting that could be changed somewhere >to make it work correctly with usenet, or whatever you were using. I >just know this is going to happen again.
