It appears that you use Yahoo!'s web-based email. May I suggest giving a Gmail account a try? I think that Gmail's web interface is far superior to Yahoo!'s and it might make things easier on you if you don't mind learning to like/love/accept the differences between Yahoo! and Gmail. (Personally I used Yahoo! for several years, got angry at some of their stunts and quit...) You don't have to use a dedicated email program, but they certainly help. On the other hand you could look into tools for your particular web browser to see if any would help with your email. Looking for Firefox I found no plugins and 1 semi-working GreaseMonkey scripts that would help you Jon: * http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/5594 - For Yahoo! Mail: Colors each level of > indentation differently so that you can visually distinguish the differences when reading quoted email. (I can't believe that Yahoo! still doesn't do this automatically!?‽) Caveat: Only works with "Classic" view. I couldn't find an easy plugin to do Paste as (Email) Quotation, which seems a shame. I would assume that you could easily adapt one from Thunderbird's source... I did not find any addons for IE that would help. -- --Max Battcher-- http://www.worldmaker.net/ Interrobang Maru _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
