Re[3]: Removing top posting--how?

I really did want to tell the List I am friends with everyone on it, and thank them all for their welcome and support. Didn't know how to manage the re-send, after I figured out what I'd done, so I set it up again in Reply. Below is the answer I sent you: MB Hi, Walt, WN Re your message: Removing top posting--how? WN On Friday, October 18, 2002 at 21:21:41, Mary Bull said, more or less, the following: MB ...I am a true newbie... WN ... Try not to let them offend you too much. ... MB The moderator and I have made friends. No sense in throwing out the MB baby with the bath water. (American idiom.) It was just a matter of MB clashing communication styles, and I understand the moderators are in MB the process of moderating the Macros (or to use an old newspaper MB term, boilerplate) so they will have less chance of someone else MB mis-perceiving the intent, as I did, when I arrived for the first time MB on the List. Thanks for sending me so much support. -- Mary Current version is 1.61 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

An excellent suggstion and one I'd welcome even as a not-quite- so-newbie! :-) Additionally, step-by-step instructions for setting up the basic parts of the program would be good - e.g. we did one for setting up the mail dispatcher which has been sent to various TB new users as a guide to how to make it work. These sorts of things on a website would be really useful resources. -- Cheers, Anne Current version is 1.61 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I want to thank everyone who wrote with MB encouragement and advice on using The Bat! (I have it on a trial MB basis) and on the requirements of the TBUDL List. Hi Mary, Hang on in there with TB - you're doing just fine! :-) MB I have spent the past 2 hours trying to make sense of both the Client and MB the Posts regarding my problems. This may be my last MB post to TBUDL. Mary, when you ask for help here (as elsewhere) remind them you're new to TB and need simple answers! Loads of the techie stuff goes way over my head as well so don't let it worry you! MB (Like Elaine, I really have enjoyed Top Posting elsewhere all MB these years.) This can be done via the templates as others have said - try and see how you get one - if you need more help with it just shout and someone will assist :-) -- Cheers, Anne (from the Rootsweb list using a different mail address here ;-) Current version is 1.61 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
