[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Accidentally including the CC line

GEE, sure wish my WIN/TCP mail system would accidentally allow me to reply
back to the CC: field once in a while :-)

This is in reply to Bob <enger@gburg.scc.com> note:

Some people may have missed the trailing smile at the end of your comment
about wishing you could accidentally replying to CC recipients.  I force 
myself to use our VMS product, mostly out of masochism but partly so issues
such as the one you raise are familiar.  Keith McCloghrie works on a number
of our products, but not the VMS one, so he can affort the luxury of
using a Unix interface (MH, when last I checked).

Why should I burden everyone with this clarification?  Well, the problem
is that the VMS user interface to mail, with our TCP product, is standard
DEC issue, called VAXmail.  While we have integrated into it as best
possible, through their foreign service interface, we do not touch the basic
vaxmail product.

We are thinking of offering a richer mail system for a number of platforms,
but that is mostly my way of trying to find an excuse to use some old
but fondly rememebered experiences.  

Another alternative, shortly, will be All-In-One.
