Neither of those posts address the issue I was bringing up.  That issue
was/is:

Are we talking about taking the time (an extra step) to put an
exclamation at the beginning of every memo, just so that the column
width can be set to 7?

My point was that you can set the column width to 7 and still see
*something* (an indicator that the message has a memo).  Of course, if
you want to see the entire first letter of the first word in the memo,
you may have to push the column width to 11 or 12.

So my question is this: Are people really taking that extra step to
insert ! before each memo so that they can save screen real estate?

I thought that the point was to have a memo presence indicator. By
skipping the step of inserting that ! and just typing the memo, you can
still have an indicator.

And still set the column width to 7.

Again....  am I missing something?  Is this part of an organization
system?  I'm curious.

If it's just a preference thing - OK, I'll shut up. But I was asking if
the exclamation point was part of something else (special filter, search
criteria, etc.) I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around the idea
as it has been explained so far.
