I think I understand what you are saying. I would never edit a mail
and claim that it was the original. I would always note clearly the
changes I had made.

As for my own security, I do as much as seems to me reasonably
prudent, always ready to change my ways if newer information comes to
me.

As to right and wrong, I try to live by the guideline, "Treat others
as you would like them to treat you."
