What you need to do is quote and respond to the relevant sections of the
email, and trim everything else. So, for instance, I'm responding to the
above paragraph of yours. So I hit "reply" in Thunderbird, and then I
snipped everything else but the above paragraph, and started typing.
What the listserver does is looks for the footer ("post messages to
dabo-users...") and snips that and everything after it.
What you were doing before was to quote the entire message, and post
your comments below the quoted footer from the listserver. So your
comments got snipped.
It is always good to quote the parts of the message you are replying to,
to give context. It is always bad to quote an entire message.
Hope it helps!
Paul
