First - please remember to send your reply to the List so the rest of us
can read it. Second - when you do reply, please remember to snip some of it
as suggested by Betsy. It does cause a problem for the Digest mode.

Thanks

Martha

Help! A plea from a Digest Mode subscriber! When replying to a message,
especially a long one, please delete most of the original message and
snip only a bit of it to show up in your reply. When you reply, the
whole original message, and any other previous reply gets re-replied,
etc. Those of us on Digest Mode get our messages grouped in one message,
and when long replies show up, the Digest overfloweth and creates a file
entirely too long for email to handle--with several copies of the
original long message included.

The big files also cause a problem on the egroups server--so please be
aware of the file-overload problem.

And thanks, guys, for snipping those replies!
