[Coco] someone please move this to a forum.

Please no!  Not digest by default.  That is even harder to figure out than top, bottom, or inline replies. 

Besides only 35 and even I know how to manage my ever ballooning e-mail inboxes.  

IMHO if you are joining lists for machines that for the most part are as old as the slightly more modern Internet we have all come to hate and love then you also should be willing to learn how to use older network technologies like nntp, ftp, simple mailing lists, telnet, irc. 

But then I am a nerd, geek, techie or whatever term has been or is being used. 

Regards,

People just getting into computers in the last five years or so are a lot more familiar and comfortable with web based forums. I don't have a problem with them like some of you... ya'll must be "just a bit" older than me... more set in your ways... (that's a joke, but for the record I'm "only" 50...).

Problem solved! On occasion I have someone e-mail me and ask how to get individual messages, but that's rare. So Dennis might want to consider that!
