[bcab] Re: Outlook express problem

Thanks Derek,
My problem arises that when I have selected a section of the message either at the beginning or end, and then press delete, rather than only the selected bit being deleted, the whole message is deleted.

Within the settings for Outlook Express. (Tools, options) it is possible to 
decide what to do when replying to a message. One of the options is not to
include the previous message. If you select that you will not have this
problem in future.
I use Outlook and have my default set to include the message but not to use 
the rather annoying > signs.  If I want to delete the original message I
just press  Ctrl-Shift-end to select everything from the cursor to the end
of the message and then press the delete key.

Cheers,

Derek

What I do is:
1 Copy message body to clipboard,
2 Open new message and paste the boddy of the message there,
3 put my email address in the "To" field
4 Put all recipiants in the BCC field
5 Fill in Subject  field and send message
6 If you can get all your contacts to do the same thing you should work out 
that in the future you will only have one address to delete before
forwarding the message, but unfortunately it doesn't always work out that
way. Sometimes I get so annoyed I return the message to the sender and ask 
them to clean it up because I can't read it.


Take time to laugh, for it is
the music of the soul.

Hello all,
I am knew to the list, but have been advised that someone may be able to
help.
On another email list it has been recommended that when forwarding

messages

all the previous email address that may appear should be deleted.
Most people are able to do this by cursoring to the point in the message
from unwanted material is to be deleted, then pressing; "shift control and 
either home or end" and delete.
When I do this the whole message is deleted.
Equally, if I have pressed "control f" before trying the above, all I have in the edit box in the new message is the subject line that jaws can read. 
When the massage is forwarded the whole thing is sent.
Any ideas please.
My procedure at present is to cut and paste the whole message to word,

where

the sectional deleting operates perfectly.
Thanks in advance
Peter Eckersley
