Hi Florian,
On 05 December 2000 at 18:01:28 +0100 (which was 17:01 where I
live) Florian Effenberger wrote and made these points:

Ctrl-F4 or Shift-Click the reply button to do this.

A reasonable idea but it doesn't fit with the way TB handles these
things. I'd rather see the development effort directed toward V2 than
into changes of this ilk.

This can be easily done with Colour Grouping and filters.

I disagree. They are not separable but form a complete stamp.

I wouldn't want it and it would mean breaking TB's current
functionality of showing the "real name" by default and address if not
present.

That doesn't seem a bad idea.

I disagree completely. This requests makes the assumption that the
window is a "message window". It isn't - it's a folder view with many
messages in it. It would be bad form to decide that the folder has no
further use when a single message in it has been replied to.

Aha! One I agree with!!! <g>
> 13.

I don't quite understand what you mean by "aliases". Do you mean
"Handles"? Are you talking about auto-completion (which comes from the
To: history list) or Ctrl-Plus completion (which pulls from the
address book). Handles are auto-completed when tabbing out of the
address field.

Definitely not. I send messages with blank subject lines to control
this list server. I don't want to keep editing it out.

Noooooooo!!!!!! Don't take away my beloved free-caret! That would
remove the ability to type in columns or have justified paragraphs.
