[Rhodes22-list] Rhodes22-list Digest, Vol 4412, Issue 1 (Posting Reply to thread)

[Michael D. Weisner]

Peter,

I felt that it was important to leave the rest of the email intact to show the format of the digest. In most other cases, I agree with you that the excess should be trimmed.

Joe,

I was in the midst of composing a much longer reply than Mike's, when I got called away to dinner.  It basically said the same thing, using many more words.

Your email app is behaving the way that Mike and I would expect it to, but apparently not the way you would expect it to. 

The world of internet based communications is always changing, and quite frankly, I am not keeping up with it.  I don't do Instagram, Tik-Tok, Twitter, or even Facebook.  So, I'm still quite comfortable with the ways and means of email, but other people may be coming to this from a different point of view.

Anyway, I'm uncertain as to the source of your confusion.  If you could explain what you expected to happen when you hit the 'reply' button, I could attempt to explain why the result was something else.

Oh, and Mike, you could have deleted the whole digest content from your reply to Joe, so as not to further clutter up the archives :-)
