Today i replied to the list to a question from Paul Mulroney and my 
email posted to list without a problem. Then only minutes later I 
tried to reply to a question from Malcolm J McCallum and it bounced. 
This is not the first time i have had replies bounce that were replies 
to questions from Malcolm...why would this happen?

the questioning one was to cut something from a forum web page and



paste it into the email


So I would guess that instead of being inserted as ordinary text into
the mail it has possibly been treated as an attachment

BUT that is only a guess based on your information

Text from pages would usually be pasted in as styled text. If the 
font's different, or there's bold or italic text, then it's styled.


Some e-mail clients offer you the option of stripping styles before 
sending the mail.


Have fun,
