Subj: Re: [kl] Weber #2 autograph?

This is just a request. I'm not sure if others have the same function on
their email client, but could you please turn of your "Return Receipt
Requested" when posting to the List?

Each post I read from you brings up a "Return Receipt Requested" that I have
to reply to before reading your post. I would rather continuing reading
your posts than to have to create a message rule to block them.

I appreciate the consideration of this request.

[Some people would take a post like this as condescending and somewhat
offensive if it were directed at them. I assure you, I do not mean to
offend. I sincerely wish to read your posts.]

Robert

P.S. I use Outlook Express 6. If anyone on the list knows how to have it
just automatically say no to every request for a Return Receipt, then that
would be good too. ;-)
