Andy,
Just to set the record straight, selecting a portion of the text in a
message
before hitting reply only works to send part of the original message if
one
is using Claris E-Mailer. I know of no other email program that is as
functional,
as CE, but since Apple has "End-of-Life"'d it, not everybody has the
opportunity
and pleasure of using the BEST email program ever made.
People who use other email client programs need to learn basic
"cut-and-paste"
editing skills, and to use "cut" judiciously before posting.
Regards,
Joe
