Hi Thomas,
Thanks for explaining that, unfortunately Lotus Notes mail gives no option
other than to 'top-post' - so my appologies to all who are offended by
this.

I do have the evaluation version of TB!, but am coming to the conclusion
that it doesn't do exactly what I want, so I think I will stick with
Turnpike as my home email solution of choice. It works well, does exactly
what I want, and is a News reader too. Also it's free for Demon
subscribers. After all, why fix something that aint broke? What was I
thinking of?

Thanks to everyone who took the time to respond to my original query, it's
great to know that expert users are out there and ready to help.

So, having decided to stay with what I've got, you're all safe from my
top-posting!!

Thanks,
Nigel.

OK, I'll explain. When you look at the messages on this list, you will
see that people usually quote the paragraph they are replying to, and
post their comment right below it. As I am doing here. It makes the
post easier to read.

What you do, is to quote the entire message and just write your
comment on the top. That is called top-posting and is somewhat frowned
upon on this list.

Well, I have never used Lotus and cannot comment on this. But is seems
to break threads...

You will need TB to understand this:

Account / Sorting Office / Selective Download Filters. Click on New
and check out what it can do. Post any questions here. ;-)
