I will ask James if he wants to also host BL3.32 ISO at the same site.

I just logged into my yahoo account (and waited 5-10 min for it to load, 
via broadband, at 233MHz with 64MB RAM - it uses up 99.9% of CPU time and 
82% of memory).  Forward - you see the original message on the screen. 
Arrow down to the end and hold your finger on the backspace.  Or highlight 
with the mouse and then DEL.  You can select what to delete too.  I did 
not look for a setting that lets you reply without including original.
Congrats on managing to send plain text -  numerous people insist Yahoo 
cannot be trained that way.

Yahoo Mail is not suitable for older computers.  I suggest fastmail.fm, or 
a webmail account at visualserver.org, or pay $1 or so to freeshell.org 
for pine and mutt and webmail.  (Pine and mutt can be made to work at 
visualserver but not easily).

It took me six sec to log into fastmail with images.  I have lots of mails 
there that need to load from inbox.
