Guest guest Posted June 8, 2006 Report Posted June 8, 2006 I see some problems in trying to respond to a Digest - this is one of 's great improvements, it seems. The only way I can see to respond to a Digest right now is to send a *new* email to the group address (and put the subject line of the message to which you're replying into the new email, so we know what it's about). This is a pain in the neck. But please persevere - we need to hear from you! (Perhaps that's why I've been getting off-list posts in the last 2 days rather than to the list? Just beginning to understand!) OK, we'll sort this out :-) loves to mess with its system, but we can mess more! Best love, Pat Quote
Guest guest Posted June 8, 2006 Report Posted June 8, 2006 I think you can reply to an individual post within the digest. Which is a great thing if you ask me. Although I'm on not on digest here, I am in other groups and it's kind of frustrating when people respond to a digest and include the WHOLE digest in their response. Hopefully this new method will end the chance of that happening. Cindi pat <veggiehound wrote: I see some problems in trying to respond to a Digest - this is one of 's great improvements, it seems.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2006 Report Posted June 8, 2006 Hi Paula ~ Yes, it does make it a bit harder to trim. It's like it " sees " the message in two parts. I've been going down to the bottom of the message and clicking and that gets rid of the stuff at the bottom. If I want to trim above that, I click on the posting area to make it " live " and then highlight the portion I want to erase and hit delete. Cindi Paula <paulakward wrote: Another thing I've noticed is that when I try to reply to a post by regular e mail, just by hitting reply on my screen, then the junk can't be erased, and the messages just won't allow any trimming....but when I click the choice at the end of the message to reply on the web, then the web screen comes up and it is easy to edit. The only thing I don't like about this option is that sometimes I like to have a record of my post in my " sent messages " folder, and the reply by web post doesn't provide that. I'm on individual e mail in this group, and there is only the option of replying on the web, but it seems to me that on the digests there is a choice of respond by e mail or on the web. I'll have to check it out again. All in all, there are many improvements. Paula Quote
