Hi all. On Message, between the Quote and Report buttons there is an icon that has a plus sign on it. What does that button do?

It is similar to the Quote button, but intended to let you quote other posts prior to the last post you quote (with Quote), thus quoting several different posts in your own reply.

Try it, tagging (hitting the plus icon on) several different posts, ending by clicking quote and you will see the message you are now drafting contains quotes of all the message you tagged. Although I suggest trying it, that is only to see what happens, no need to send the message you create. It's easier to see and understand than explain.

And another mystery solved (in addition to my original). Yes, I was thinking that posts containing multiple quotes was some kind of Harry Houdini trick.

Wow! Two mysteries solved in one reply. Nice work, Lt. Columbo!

Thanks!
