Two forum questions

Looking for advice please:

Looked on all faq's and no answers.
1/ when replying to a post i know how to quote BUT how do you perform a 'partial' quote,,,if this makes sense..i.e quoting just part of someones post.

2/ i have been receiving mse emails for some time but this week no email received.I sent email to webmaster but got standard reply.looked at faq's but no help..talks about firewalls/filters etc.
I use outlook expresss and i have changed nothing.In fact i dont even know if outlook has such a thing as a spam filter?

Would welcome any advice.Thank you

    To partial quote you quote as normal and edit the bit out

    If you want to quote bits several times with a reply, copy and paste the full bit then do as above and repeat

    Click the quote button, and remove the bit you don't want.

    Yes you can quote two different post easiest way is to open a new window (new tab very easy to do with firefox) with the who thread and just click quote on the post and paste that into the other window

    If you didn't get it, they sometimes come late because it takes ages for ALL of them to go out and they don't always start at A and work through to Z, but you can look at the main website to read it. Link at the top right of every page in the chat forum.

  • my emails have been going into my spam folder lately, but havent changed anything either so dont know why?
    Maybe thats whats happened to yours? Im sure you'll have one but dunno where.
    I have a bt account and can access from windows mail or by logging into bt emails.
    Its only when I log into bt emails that I can retrieve my "spam".

    Dont know if you'll be same
