Most people know how to highlight text, hit delete, move the
courser and type information into a new location. Why would you
need to set your e-mail program to reply to any message.



I'm using Mail in Panther and all I do is highlight the text I want to 
quote and hit reply.
The cursor does end up above the quote but it's just one click to get 
it below.
Filling the subject line is more aggravation since I get the digest so 
the default subject is always G-books Digest

technology is the answer, what was the question?

Works, thank you. Now I can go on disturbing the comfortable—and  
humorless geeks.

Re: setting bottom post not required in Mail

2006-02-03 Thread Geoffrey Peters

Stardate 060203.11:05 -0500. A subspace message from Andrew in Ann Arbor reads:


I'm using Mail in Panther ... The cursor does end up above the quote ...


It does WHAT?!? Have the Mail devteam been spending too much time 
stuck inside Outcroak or something? Methinks we should all write to 
the Mail Devteam c/- One Infinite Loop and say RFC 1855, guys!!


See, I wouldn't've known this, as I don't use Mail -- I've been a 
dedicated Eudora fan *waves to Steve* since version 0.8. I've tried 
other mail programs over the years, I keep coming back to the Big E. 
When I moved to OSX five months ago, I tried Apple's Mail ... threw 
it my Eudora mail-folder and I got a kernel panic.


I run my own RFC 1855 pre-filter here (based on 'listar') - if 
incoming mail breaks RFC 1855, the sender gets a nice little bounce 
message asking them to try again. I used to use a similiar pre-filter 
for my nntp feed (but without the bounce) when I still bothered with 
newsgroups, My .sig states my filter rules thusly:


WARNING: Mail to this address wil be auto-bounced without warning if:
(a) more than 10% original content appears before first quoted matter,
(b) quoted material exceeds 75% of total message content, and/or
(c) HTML is used to format text and/or embed non-ASCII items.
