Before posting to this forum, you need to understand that it is also
connected to a mailing list that existed before the forum, and that we
must respect that community's wishes.  EVERY forum post that you make is
immediately sent to that mailing list as an email.  Messages that
include no context may make sense on a threaded forum, but make no sense
to an email user that can't easily see the previous message to which you
are replying.

Therefore, when replying to another post (including your own), YOU MUST
INCLUDE the relevant parts of the post to which you are replying in
quotes.  That way, when someone is following on the mailing list, they
won't get an email that says "Here's what you can do about that?"
without having any idea what "that" is.

The easiest way to do this is to use your mouse to select the
appropriate amount of text needed for context, then right click and
select "Copy."  Paste that message into your forum post as the first
paragraph or two.  THEN SELECT THE PASTED TEXT AGAIN and click the
"Quote" button just below the title of your post.  That will place the
"Quote" and "End Quote" codes around your text, causing it to show up as
a quote in the forum post and in the email to the mailing list.

Your assistance in this is greatly appreciated.
