I have always been partial to use of the subject in a message so those not
interested can delete a message.  I also wish there was a key such as the
"reply to message" (control R in Eudora) which would allow replying to a
single sender.  I understand such a key exists in some mail readers.  Does
anyone know of a way of making such a key in Eudora?
