And even without Vim (which I could use to edit mails in SeaMonkey but
usually don't, because the mailer itself is certainly no "crippleware",
it includes most of what I need) you can usually use Ctrl-Shift-Down
followed by Del, and voilà. No sweat. But of course, if even moving the
cursor to the end of the text (in order to bottom-post) is too much for
one's lazy fingers, ...
Best regards,
Tony.
