It's possible to combine all the postings in a thread even if small changes, like Aw: added instead of Re:, are made. Many mail clients will do this if asked but they get confused when new postings are made while hijacking a thread and just changing the subject. -- -->A flashlight: is a metal tube used to store dead dry cells. <-- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
