Actually, I don't think it comes from lazyness, or it doesn't in my case anyway, but from forgetfulness. When I plan on replying to a digest mode message I first copy the message I"m replying to, hit replay, select all the text, replace it with the message I am replying, copy the subject line, paste the subject line into the message subject, edit the message to remove superflous information such as footers, then go to the top of the message and type my reply. Sometimes it's just easy to forget a step, and the subject line step is the easiest to skip since it's not as obvious as any of the others. Regards, Jim Langston From: MacWheel99@aol.com The problem here is the person replying to the Digest, not the Digest itself. We all are sometimes lazy, some people lazy more often. Reply to Digest should cut & paste the original subject to the Subject of the reply & be extremely careful not to quote the entire digest in the reply to one part of it. This means that people replying to digest mode have to do a little more work than people replying to ordinary messages, but there are lazy users of both digest & standard.
