For instance, your first post: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2008-02/msg00018.html Look at the "raw text" version of the post. http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/get-raw-msg?listname=gcc&date=2008-02&msgid=Pine.GS O.4.58.0802021000330.21150%40gateway.ece.neu.edu (http://tinyurl.com/2zuhtb to avoid wrapping) You can see the "From" and "Return-Path" headers are of the form: "gcc-return-<DECIMALNUMBER>-listarch-gcc=gcc" bla bla bla. That decimal number is the index number of the post in the list archive. You can get the mailer daemon to re-send you a copy of the original post by sending a blank email to "gcc-get.DECIMALNUMBER" at gcc dot gnu dot org. When the resent copy arrives, you can then reply to it as normal. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today....
