Problem solved.
I don't see a problem. What are you talking about?
:-) Exactly!
No, you're missing the point. IIRC (and I'm not going to check), you've again removed relevant content. Please don't bother to reply if you don't want to tell people what you're talking about.
That WAS the point. I said "it gets to the point where I solve it by doing this..." right at the very top of this...it's still quoted.
It is a tongue and cheek way of saying I erase all that originally unthreaded topposted crap and just say, "What did you want?" back to the sender of the email. They can send me a message stating specifically what they want so I don't need to waste my time stuttering through a stream of five messages to figure out what the heck they wanted. My alternative is to just not reply at all.
Just like the first line said.
I thought most people would get the joke from the thread subject being "topposting" :-)
