Subject: Including Original Message in Reply

Hello ,
     I've subscribed to this list for about 2 months now and I have
learned quite a bit from it and am grateful for your technical
expertise.
     I would, however, like to voice a pet peeve.
     When you include the original message in your posts, would you
please put it after your message?  I am blind and use speech for
access and having the quote first is time consuming and a bit
annoying.
     If I am reading your post, I am usually familiar with the
thread and can silence my machine and go on to another post.
     I realize this takes some extra work, but it would help insure
your posts are read and make the time on the Internet more
productive for those of us using access devices.
     Thank you,
     Margaret

Thanks, Margaret, for a point of view it wouldn't have occurred
to me to think of.  It's a kind of rock-and-hard-place thing from
my perspective - for myself, I prefer to have quotes first rather
than last because (and especially if there's a timelapse between
the original post and the reply) it's easier to pick up on the
discussion thread when the stream is chronological -
quote/reply/quote/reply...It hadn't occurred to me that that
might be a problem for some.  I wonder if there's a solution that
would suit everyone, at least to some extent....I'll have to give
that some thought.

And my question was................I have a client who wants to
save mail to folders, sans header.  Doesn't want anything except
maybe date and sender.  Is it possible to do that?  Anyone have
an idea how?  

Please let me know...

Marianne
