BG> I have just noticed another problem.  When replying to some messages, the

Can you tell me how to reproduce this, as I have been unable to.  Is
it only when you do an Alt-Q, or only when you do an Alt-R, and does
it always do it for the same message every time?  Does it still do 
it when you exit msged and restart.  Are you using the latest alpha?

Do you mean Alt-Q?  Alt-Q is working fine for me, if you can tell me
how to reproduce it, I can do something about it.

Then the new releases will continue to have the same bug in it,
and you are not alpha-testing to help make MSGED a better
product.

I crashed the latest one to them already.  It is dated
1995-06-09 19:15.  That is what I am using for my testing.
