When I'm using the gmail web interface (which isn't often), or if I happen to notice that someone has left a quoted email address in the post I'm replying to, I do it manually. For most of my email I use Thunderbird, which works brilliantly with gmail over the imap protocol, and ... hmm, I can't remember now if it always generates reply headers like the kind I'm using here or if I had to edit the config, but anyway, it was easy and it just works, I highly recommend it. (I much prefer a proper mailer to any web interface to email, though that's a personal taste.) cheers, DaveK -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
