I know that TB's discarding of everything below a cutline is a great feature. But what happens if I *don't* want that behavior to occur?
I haven't figured out a way to include a message with more than one response. For example: I am following up on a software request to a developer. I am selecting the last message I sent, using Reply All and deleting my own address from From. I want to quote my last reply as well as the developer's message that I had replied to. But there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do that with TB. I've tried regular Reply and selective Reply (F4) but both methods remove the developer's message as it falls below the cutline in my signature. (yes, they are using top-posting and not removing signature/cutlines... shame on them.. yadda yadda..) Even if someone else is doing it "wrong" this behavior seems a bit count-intuitive to highlight a block of text, press F4, and only have half of what I've highlighted show up in the reply. It's like The Bat is enforcing its own belief about cutlines no matter what I do! Forwarding the message does not work, as the format and quoting isn't what I want for a reply. My current work-around is to reply (which only gets the topmost post), then go back and forward the message, copying the second message down (developer's message) and pasting it below what the Reply grabbed. Aside from a full-on crusade to get the rest of the world to follow posting and cutline rules, is there a better way to do what I am describing? -- Ken Green Using The Bat! v1.62r on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.00.6 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
