Hi Skip:
I can see your point, but on the other hand the term "Value" is rather subjective.

Sometimes when someone posts a problem on this list, it may be helpful to another
person having the same problem to get some feedback like "Thanks, that worked"
before implementing changes on their computer.

I look at this list as a "Great Resource"It and have almost all of the messages on
this list since 1998 saved on my computer.  If I have a question, I can search
the previous messages for a solution.  I see no need to "Reinvent the Wheel".

CTRL-D works fine on unwanted messages.  I get 500 to 900 email messages a day and
use it when needed.
