When you have the message open, you can hit control F for forward, tab until you get to the edit field, then arrow down to where you can copy the sender's email address. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Troy Burnham" <tburnham@xxxxxxxxx> To: "jfw" <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, June 12, 2005 5:24 PM Subject: sending a private message on an e-mail list in OE Hi All, This has already come up a couple of times since I have switched from Eudora to OE so I suppose I need to find out how to do this. How do I reply privately to a message on the list? I looked at the JFWlite helpful hints page under OE and it says to open the message of the person that you want to reply to then hold down the alt key and hit the number 1 twice rapidly. Then it says to copy the e-mail address to the clipboard. When I do this however only the person's name shows and not their e-mail address, should I see the e-mail address or is this a security thing in OE? I haven't actually followed through with sending a message because I didn't figure that it could be sent unless the e-mail address is pasted into the new message that I send, and as I have already said there is no e-mail address to paste. Can somebody help?
