I beg to differ. Mine says, "View Folder TBUDL of ford127". IOW, view
the folder X of the account X. Maybe it should more properly say
"viewing folder", but I think it's perfectly good English. :) "TBUDL of
ford127 - Folder View" seem more awkward to me.

I'll concede this one after CTRL-SHIFT-TRASH BUTTON deletes a thread.

Well,  it's  certainly  two  characters  longer  g. IMHO there is an
awkwardness in both, but they're trying to say something which conveys
a location.

PF I'll concede this one after CTRL-SHIFT-TRASH BUTTON deletes a

And  I'll concede that as a fair enough concession. (Aha - a title for

KS 1. When you compose a message, there is a sort of status bar
KS smack at the bottom of the message. Currently mine says:

KS 1.7   Modified  Stream  Insert  [icon]  kspaink  Latin-1


What I'm *missing* in the status bar is an indicator whether the
"Auto-Format" feature is switched on or off. It is tedious to have to
press ALT+U everytime you wanna know...

Hello Avenarius,


On  Thursday, September 21, 2000  at  01:35:44 GMT +0200 (which was 4:35 PM
where I live) witnesses say Avenarius typed:

 What I'm *missing* in the status bar is an indicator whether the
 "Auto-Format" feature is switched on or off. It is tedious to have to
 press ALT+U everytime you wanna know...

I'll second that vote.  It could go right next to the Column:line
number on the status bar of the editor.

Hello Karin,

KS The one that baffles me is the small icon. When I open a new
KS message or reply to mail, it is a minuscule TB icon (in the
KS shape of a stamp). Clicking it once changes it into a
KS minuscule exclamation mark (yellow on a red stamp) and

If you right-click the stamp it will show you the options .. this is
priority and confirmation

In fact .. right click works for all the 'options' there

 It's all a matter of priority...
  
 No really! It set's the priority of the message. If you click in the
 space next to it you can set Reading receipt or Confirmation receipt.

 Just try a right click instead of a left one and you'll see all the
 combinations.
