Ralph,
My professional answer is -

PC: Shift-Ctrl-Page Down, Delete  Simple as that.
Mac: (????)

He's perfectly right about digests becoming unreadable from unnecessary
attached messages.

Peter,
I would have edited this but I couldn't spare the time.  Some of us are
professionals and I'll be damned if Im going to edit out parts of a question
for you before I can help the person out, with an answer.  Time is money!
Shall we all just give short comments to answer's aswell!  Like 'Yes you
can' and 'No it doesnt work like that'!
Why dont you stop whinging and get them sent in seperate emails like the
rest of us!

Regards
Ralph

Professional? Bugger off. You're just lazy. If editing a mail takes you that
much trouble, I wonder how you manage to play your AN1x.

"To the point" would be just fine. In the old days (say, three years ago)
people would put their answer *under* the question, which made it all that
much easier to read what it's all about. Saves all of us 300 readers some
time.

I get them that way, thank you. I was just empathising with the people who
don't, which is a choice they made.

Instead of trying to find excuses, you could consider how you could make
this list easier for everyone. It's not like I'm asking something
unreasonable, you know.

The more you say the more you are adding to what you are trying to stop.
We get the picture, Or are you going to waste some more of your
bandwidth and reply to this message?
