I have already replied to this, but the reply might be sitting on a tape somewhere, as usual in this network. Fix the user agent to avoid including the complete original message in each reply. This is unacceptable practice on a distribution list, if everybody was using such a user agent the average size of a note would grow to hundreds of lines after a couple weeks. Eric
