Apologies to all firstly for duplicate posting and also for this top posting reply ( I'm of the old school on this although pretty sure I could get used to it) Tony I take your point re quoting, baffled me for a while, think I may have got it though. I have of late been replying to mails direct from Yahoo site (due to too many genuine mails being put in spam) , a quick look didn't find a setting but it does seem set up for top replying and as I replied at the bottom it probably just lumped my text in with Normans, will investigate further and return to Thunderbird. All the best - Bill
