Hi, I recently joined the list and trying to skip across all the previous messages was driving me crazy! My husband suggested this: Go to the first new post and select and copy the date. For example, in the digest in which you posted your question, I copied: Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2004 Then do a "FIND" in your editor and paste that information in. You should get to the next message with that date. From then on, you can do a "Find Next". This may not always work, but usually does because the new posts are usually the only ones with that date. I don't think I did a good job in explaining, but I hope it helps.
