NA Heavens no Mary... I know that was not Marck's intention at all.
NA What you should do is design a Reply Template and use it in your
NA Address Book. By that I mean once completed to your liking, use
NA that Template in your Address Book under each Mailing List entry.
NA Here is an example:

NA %WRAPPED=%QUOTES
NA %CURSOR
NA %PUT=C:\My Documents\My Signatures\Personal Signature.txt

NA If you are a mouse person as I am, simply set your wheel mouse
NA button for F4, so that all you have to do is highlight the portion
NA of a message you wish to comment on, then hit the wheel mouse
NA button: Voila! Your Reply is all set for you to start typing, and
NA no more worries about top posting.
Sometimes I really think that we expect *way* too much here of TB!
beginners! Even though your explanation above is correct and clearly
set out, I think that for a total beginner to TB! and especially to
template construction, it can be enough to send them on their merry
way back to OE!
I am not criticising you Nick, but maybe there really *is* a need for
a total newbie's help file of some sort. When I first set TB! up,
these kinds of explanations simply blew me away and I had no idea what
anyone was talking about. If it were not for Melissa's ongoing
patience and her frequent emails containing re-written for newbies
instructions, I would never have made it off the ground. For someone
who has perhaps come straight from OE ( or worse still, something like
Incredimail) - template instructions may very well look like a foreign
language! JMHO.
