I have a script I wrote that will display the mail client for any message as
well, but an awful lot of people aren't using Entourage to access this list
or the newsgroups, so I have no idea what version they are running.

I have taken to inserting that request in each message I reply to where the
mail client hasn't been stated mainly as an exercise in education and partly
because I can do it easily. I wrote a script that I use to insert
bioler-plate text into outgoing messages (I use notes to store the text
chunks, and the script displays a list of all notes that have a category of
'Stationery' and you can choose one or more to insert). I sent this (and a
few others0 off to ASC a week or two back, but Eric must be busy because he
hasn't posted them yet (although he has acknowledged receipt).
