Oh, that's neat. Well, you're all set, then.

Very interesting! Well, I certainly was wrong, then. That's
very useful to know.

I should think it would be useful for a whole bunch of posts that
*weren't* ready to go, so you could get them back in the REPLIES
folder and edit them. But with the Shift-E option, if it works
with any folder, seems it would be easier just to use that.

As you just went on to say. ;-)

No problem, I've learned something that may turn out to be very
useful. Thanks for your time as well.
