Re: Car Keys

So does bottom posting when people don't snip. Don't you get fed up of
scrolling
down every single post, rather than just seeing them in the preview pane?

Top *and* bottom posted for Dave's benefit.

What "preview pane"?

Don't make assumptions about how other people read news. That's why there
*are* standards.

indeed! some people decide that the application defaults are 'correct' when
that isn't necessarily the case (LookOut being one of them).

The news reader I am using (see the header 'User-Agent') needed to be set
up correctly (though technically there weren't any defaults :) ). As with
all things, learn to use the toolsi/equipment properly, in our hobby it
could be fatal not doing so...
