Well for one thing, why don't you use the system that places
a right-pointing arrow (whatever they're called) before each
quoted line, two arrows before each quote of a quote, and
three before each quote of a quote of a quote? The system
you use makes it more difficult to figure out who wrote what.
Also, you should cut out as much of the quoted material as
possible. All of this is basic netiquette.

I also find that letters, words, and sometimes whole sentences
have dissappeared from your messages when they are read in
digest form online at the site. If the message is opened from
the link on the digest form, it appears fine. I don't know
why any of this happens, but it seems to happen only with
messages of yours.
