[ExI] Replying to the list

[Ben Zaiboc]

I'm finding it remarkably tedious to reply to quoted sections of 
people's posts on the daily digest of this list, keeping the subject, 
and correctly attributing quotes.

Do any of you have any tips to make this easier? I'm constantly cutting 
and pasting fragments of text, and sometimes get it wrong.

I use Thunderbird, if that makes a difference.

(oh, and what happened to the index numbers of the posts? I used to be 
able to look at the contents list at the top, note that I wanted to read 
post No. 8, and rapidly scroll down to No. 8, Now I no longer see the 
numbers on the actual posts, which is another annoyance)
