I couldn't handle the barrage of emails if it wasn't for its threading. If you use Firefox you may have an option for bottom posting. I remember having a Gmail add-in that would let you do this. I'm not sure if it's compatible with current Firefox as I'm on Chrome now but it may be worth looking at. Richard ---------------------------------------- Thanks, Ng and Richard. I have now created a Gmail account, and subscribed to this list with the new account. I did a few tests and Gmail does properly the two things where Yahoo fails, namely, properly indenting with '>' and breaking the line at 72 characters. I was looking for the relevant settings and could not find them. Nevertheless the default behaviour seems fine so that is OK. P.
