How this. I am sorry about the "Top-Postings". I have been using Lotus
Notes 6.5 for some time now. I didn't even realize that I was doing
something different than what everyone else is going. I have always
replied to emails at the top of a new email. I just found out that there
is a "Replay with Internet Style" which seems to be the way everyone is
communicating....
