I have my preferences set up so that the default setting for replying to a message places the quoted text at the *end* of the message. Something that would help me out enormously would be to have a key code (eg, Cmd-Ctrl-R) to reverse that default, just for that instance -- so, in my case it would put the quoted text at the *start* of the message. (For someone who normally had it at the start, it would put the quotation at the end).
Currently my only option in those minority cases where I want the quoted text at the start (eg. if I'm replying to a particular passage from the original email) is to either change my preferences (and change them back again afterward -- not a neat solution) or to start cutting and pasting. How about these shortcuts: Cmd-Ctrl-R: Reply with reversed "insertion point" setting -- for that instance only. (If user normally has "quote original text" turned OFF in preferences, this shortcut turns it ON, and WITHOUT reversing the "insertion point" setting. ) Cmd-Shift-Ctrl-R: (bit awkward, I'll admit) Reply to all, modified as above. I'd find this incredibly useful. Rick -- G5 2GHz x2 :: 2GB RAM :: 10.3.6 :: PM 5.1 :: 3 pane mode
