There is a setting in MSOutlook/MSOE to wrap your lines, say, at 62 or 70. I don't remember my experiences with MSOE on Mac very well, but MSOE on MSW2k had little triangles on buttons in various places. If you hit the button, you got the standard function. If you hit the triangle, you got a pop-up menu. Pop-up menu for replies included basically all the potential reply addresses (according to MS judgement of potential reply addresses). Look around, maybe you can find something like that on MSOutlook 98. <rambling> We had some virus problems here last year, and now MS mail clients are banned. The company standardized on Becky for the MSWxx boxes, which is a really nice client, all sorts of features for mailing lists, newsgroups, etc. The filter setup is a little weird, but it works great. So I am beginning to forget the "conveniences" of MSOE on MSW2k, as well, which is not something I mind forgetting. But I have to admit, I find it puzzling why copy/pasting a mail address should be considered such an inconvenience. I admit, copy/paste on MSWxx feels clumsier than on a Mac, but the operations are fundamental to GUI. I also find it a puzzle why so many companies seem to think that MSOutlook's advantages outweigh the problems of having to bolt antivirus on everything (and the occasional slip-through that then proceeds to dirty entire subnets), but that is a separate topic. </rambling> -- Joel Rees, programmer, Kansai Systems Group Altech Corporation (Alpsgiken), Osaka, Japan http://www.alpsgiken.co.jp -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
