Excuse me?  The way it is supposed to be?  Sez who?

FWIW, opinion on this matter is equally divided.  The purpose of a mailing list is to share information.  If you want to reply to an
individual, say, in regard to an item he has for sale, cut-and-paste works very well.

If anyone has further comments on this issue, send them to me directly.  This topic is CLOSED on the list.
