It has very little to do with your newsreader. Regardless of where
the newsreader puts the cursor, you can move it yourself.

Outlook Express can use OEQuoteFix. It's possible
that third-party thing can make OE a good citizen.

I'm sorry to read you are "so ill".

If that prevents you from using the down-arrow
key, I hope you get better soon.

I tried to convince my daughter I was, but she
didn't believe it.

As a separate point, top-posting and putting the context
(i.e. my response to your previous message) below your
..sig (i.e. after the "--" line) meant that my newsreader
chopped the context when creating this message. Yes, I
could have manually re-inserted it, but I couldn't be
bothered. Another reason top-posting is disliked.

Yes, I know. Back in the days when I used Outlook Express, I used to
use OEQuoteFix.

But my point was that although even though something like OEQuoteFix
can make it easier, it isn't necessary. You can still put your reply
anywhere you want before, after, or within the quoted text.

Two points:

1. You apparently use Outlook Express, and what you were told is
wrong. There's no way to change where Outlook Express puts the cursor
in a reply.

2. This is a slightly expanded repeat of what I said earlier:
regardless of where Outlook Express, or any other newsreader, puts the
cursor, it's very easy to move it wherever you want it. To bottom
post, simply click at the bottom of the message and the reply cursor
will move there.

One thing I learned quickly the first time I used a a GUI was to select
where typed text would go (click or use the tab key, etc). I didn't
notice the problem with OE (over a decade ago, when I used OE).

I have tried to ask about the fees and "taxes" and been told they don't
know, seems the billing computer is the only entity that actually knows
the amount of taxes. Once when I called to ask about the quarterly
billed "franchise fee" and who it was going to, I was told they didn't
know and I would have to ask my franchise contact.


The 'franchise fee' goes to the local government, for their use of
the right ow way.
