Thanks Roelof, I had a play with this is the reply folder for one of the lists (they are all filtered to their own folder) and found that the line you quoted included the name of the person who had made the post plus the listname which I didn't ewant to include, but if I edit it to read thus: %To=""%To="" "%- then it simply puts the list address in the reply field and does exactly what I want it to do. Your help and advice is much appreciated :-) -- Cheers, Anne Using The Bat! v1.61 on Windows 98 4.10 Build A Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hi Roelof, I've been and rechecked and find I explained wrongly what was happening earlier. (Probably not enough coffee intake!!! ) Some of the lists have the reply to list option set (by the listowner) as default and where that is the case using the F4 quoting reply to option works fine and replies to the list as it should do with just the bit I want to quote. Where I have a problem is where the listowner has not opted to have replies go back to the list by default (this is entirely the listowners choice). In this case I have to use the reply all option to have the list address in the reply to fields at all, and then I have to delete the address of the original sender so that my reply goes solely to the list. It's in this case that I have the problem with F4 and the reply all option not being usable together. -- Cheers, Anne Using The Bat! v1.61 on Windows 98 4.10 Build A Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Reply all is really useful in those cases - but I also like the F4 quoted text reply.
