Thanks for the advice Tony,
Are you suggesting that I just leave out the brackets? Like this, or do I
have to set up something else in OE if so what?
Is there a convention to follow as regards where the reply goes? Sometimes I
get replies at the top of the original email, sometimes individual comments
interspersed in the Original message and sometimes at the bottom. Frequently
it is difficult to know to what the new comments relate. If the "RULES" were
to be pointed out to us wrong-doers, perhaps we would try harder next time.
Obviously no Gold Star this time!!
Regards,
John Gilpin.
