1. Why did you post this to the newlib list then?
2. Why did you quote an entire other irrelevant mail in your post?
Don't answer that. Just learn how to drive an email program, will you? If
you hit "Reply", you get a reply to a particular post. Changing the subject
doesn't change the fact that you told your emailer to "reply" and so it is
replying, just like you told it to, and so the post contains the text of the
post to which you're replying, and the reply goes to the address that the post
you're replying to set for replies to be sent to. To a lazy person, it may
seem easier to press reply than to enter the email address in the "To:" line
yourself, but by the time you've trimmed the quote and corrected the To: line
to go where you actually *wanted* the post to go, you've actually gone to a
whole lot more effort.
***HANDY HINT: Yahoo web mail has an address-book feature. Learn to use
it.
