Hi Niko and others, Many mailers will allow you to simply click on the name/address that you wish to reply to, since e-mail addresses anywhere in the message are recognized as "active". So folks, you can do that rather than hitting the "Reply to", and generating what is, IMHO, an unnecessary firestorm. I'll admit that I am not terribly familiar with the variety of e-mail programs out there since I am a Linux user. I tend to use KMail, Thunderbird, and GMail (not on any IE browser of course), and they surely can't be that much more advanced than Windows and Mac mailers (just being funny, the latter two are multi-platform; if you have no sense of humour, reply to me offlist). And btw, broadcasting reprints, and even preprints, is standard productive practice in other fine scientific disciplines. They seem to be coping. Peter -- Dr. Peter D. Roopnarine, Assoc.
