The answer is that the "that" he refers to depends on context that wasn't supplied. "Attitude" would have been expressed by tone of voice. Clearly, that wasn't supplied either. Here, plausible tones that you could have supplied as a reader were "puzzlement" or "sarcasm". I think it's a shame that you opted to hear "sarcasm". Some may argue that the writer should have done more to express puzzlement, I suppose. -- Ian Eiloart IT Services, University of Sussex x3148 -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
