} Subject: Problem with GETPOST
} A search has returned 100 items.  When I "cut" and "paste" and send to

} posts are returned.

You have 2 options:

1) don't cut&paste.  Reply or forward the message and edit out all but
the GETPOST.  Don't forget the quoting character(s) if you reply.  While
it probably wraps on the screen, the returned GETPOST is one Looooooong
line.

2) Break it into multiple lines if this is more convenient, but them
EACH line must start with "GETPOST listname-L".
