Highlighting before replying--MacDV Digest #2612

[Ted Langdell]

Just a note...

Its helpful to highlight just the most recent part of a post before 
replying.

That keeps the reply short, and doesn't include everything that's in 
the five back and forths before.

It also means the list software won't truncate the message, like below. 
That could be a problem if your e-mail client is set up to put your 
reply AFTER the quoted text... in which case, the new comment would 
have been lost.
