While I can't comment on the specific policies of any ProLine site other than
my own, two of the points you raised are completely invalid.

You obviously have an account on another ProLine site (pro-colony) since you
sent your message from there.  That means you have access to the mailer (msg)
on that site, which gives you the same capabilities as the mail system on
pro-beagle.  It's entirely possible that your message wasn't even seen by Mark
De Jong, and even if it were, since you were obviously logged in under a
"guest" account, it was *IMPOSSIBLE* for him to reply to you on pro-beagle
except in a public message.

As to your complaint about not being able to turn "-- More --" off, that's
pretty trivial, but also incorrect.  I suggest you look at the command menu on
the site you do have access to to find out what options are available to you
and how they're invoked.

Questions/complaints about a company's policies may possibly be appropriate in
this group -- specific problems caused by lack of understanding  of how the
ProLine software works would probably be better directed to the site operator
of the site you have access to, than to a world-wide net.  Try 'root', sysop'
or 'dale', there at Pro-Colony.
