Hi Bill,
I'm very sorry, but I have to use Lotus Notes here for my mail,
which our Corporate IT doesn't seem to be able to configure
to simply get '>' quoted mail reply to work. So, sorry for my
posting style. I'd love to have it the way you want it...
Regarding the OOO replies - I tried it out, with the 4 I got, when
I posted to the list this morning. I didn't get additional OOO replies.
This is because normal OOO replyers only reply once to each sender.
Regards,
Gerhard

I appreciate your support, but not your posting etiquette. You
top-posted and didn't remove extraneous text/sig - not to mention
those big header boxes you added.
As far as sending a nasty email back to the OOO'r, we'll just get
another OOO message back - so that's a waste of time unless we
set the reply-to to /dev/nul or some such (maybe we can set the
reply-to to the posters email address and see if we can put him
in a loop ;).
PS: Not sure why I used OOF instead of OOO - I think OOO is more
correct.
