-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Mary,
On Wed, 12 Nov 2003 14:14:46 -0500 your time, you said: MAL> ... It seems like a very awkward process. Or is that a normal MAL> reaction to someone who is new to doing this? Yes, it takes a little bit more effort than just top posting. However I suspect that you easily slip in to it as you do it more often as you'll appreciate the immediate context of replies. Most of the time you will probably only need to reply to points in a message. A lot of the message isn't usually required to maintain context. You can then simply snip the parts out, like I've done below. <..snip..> MAL> When I select one part of a message to respond to, I hit F4 and MAL> can write a reply, but the rest of the message disappears. If you want to reply to every line in an email you could hit CTRL + F5 to quote the whole message. You can then simply trim, reply, and reformat as you go. If you want to reply to only a single point in a message you can highlight the text in the message and hit F4 and type your reply underneath the quoted text. MAL> Is the answer simply cursoring through the message and leaving a MAL> blank line between the quotes and my response? Well yes really, but remember a lot of the time you don't usually need to requote a whole message to maintain context. To reformat a quoted text line or your typed reply line place the cursor anywhere in the block of text and hit ALT + L or if you like your text justified ALT + J.
