Hi Bret: Well, you can import the text of a message with control+r but as far as actually including a file, just go down to the field which says "attchmnt" type the full path of your file to include. I wish that would tab-complete.
Hope that is what you are looking for.

Hello.

I do not know whether it will get through,but I have attached a screenshot that shows the options that I have available in message composition, and, those options do not show what you mentioned.

Also, I do not know who administers this list, but, in Thunderbird, which I am using to compose and send this message, for some mailing lists, I have the options "Reply to sender" and "Reply to List", but, on this list, I have only "Reply to sender" and "Reply to all", which causes two copies of a reply to be sent; one to the list, and, one to the sender of the message to which I am replying. Is it possible on this list, to get the "Reply to all", replaced with "Reply to list"?

Thank you in anticipation.

Okay.

I have found two things.

The first, is that the default is "Reply to list"; the above message had "Reply to All" as the option, instead, as the person to whose message, I was responding, had replied to both me and the list, causing the "Reply to all" to replace the "Reply to List" option.

The second thing, is that the screen shot that I posted to the list, shows the <CTRL><j> as I remember it, to attach a file.

But, what I see in the message that I am composing, to which, I want to attach two files, is different.

In this message, I have posted a screenshot of the message that I have been composing, to show what I mean, that is the problem, that led me to believe that attachments could no longer be attached to messages being composed. The message that I am composing, (in which I have inserted many blank lines, to hide the body content), is a reply to a message received.

So, the question remains - how do I attach files to that message?
