The only thing that's left to do is to ask RIT labs to add support for these

show. The first one is how the message reader looks like when these
headers are present in the message, the second one shows what happens
next.

Selecting quoted portion of a reply
Hello, Bat users, Most email clients allow you to select just part of a message before you hit Reply, with only the selected part showing up as the quoted text. TB seems to be missing that function, or is there an easy way to do it that I haven't discovered? With Agent, Eudora, and many other programs, selecting a portion of the original message and hitting Reply (or the keyboard equivalent) results in just that portion appearing in your reply as the quoted message. Datula has a context menu choice that does the same thing. I tend to prefer the former approach, which is easy and more widely used. -- Yours, John De Hoog, Tokyo http://wonmug.com -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --

SL The problem is that it makes the assumption that if text is marked then SL you want to use it for a reply. That is not the only reason to mark text. A SL lot of email that some people get have data in the email they use in other SL windows and CP to those windows. Automatic quoting of marked material is a SL pain. Furthermore, aside from simple replies like this one, it is not good to SL use since if quoting properly the individual should be quoting a little, SL replying a little, quoting a little more and so on. IE, it isn't a single SL block of text he is quoting. So why couldn't it be offered as an option? Whether it's a pain or a convenience depends on the type of mail you get. For most of mine, I quote only a selected part, not the whole message. So it's a function I use all the time when it's available. I don't really know what you mean by "marking" text for other reasons, BTW. The Datula approach, though, has the advantage of letting you select text, open the context menu on it and decide what to do, with one option being to reply to that portion alone. -- Yours, John De Hoog, Tokyo http://wonmug.com -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --
