You mean like 'exchange' or 'outlook'! The reason people use real English (or whatever) words is because they are the ones that people are familiar with and can relate to. Real words are used because the word chosen has an image already lodged in people's mind, and that is the image that the writers want associated with their program. It's the same philosophy used when naming cars or housing developments or whatever. > > > > 2) In the Preferences, I have specified 24-hour time display.

That's a holy war issue. IMHO the evo list is correct, the reply is set to the sender - if you want to reply to the list, then do Ctrl-L. It's done that way so that you have to make a conscious effort to send a message to thousands of people.
