Message "PREVIEW"

Yahoo Message Number: 19574
Walt:

A few days ago I wrote a post on the Sewer System thread, then hit the Preview box, then hit the return arrow to make a correction, however, my message disappeared into cyberspace. My attempts to recover it failed.

I'd never used the PREVIEW feature in the past.
Just wondering if anyone else has mentioned this experience? Of course I didn't think to "copy" it beforehand so it could have been "pasted" and salvaged.....just wondering.

Not sure what the "Herb : Ooops" refers to but I have also had, a couple of times, a problem with the message being lost from the edit window. If I have spent some time on composing the message, I will periodically do a ctrl-a (select all) and ctrl-c (copy) so that I at least have it in Window's clipboard, and maybe even paste it into notepad and save it, until I am sure it has been posted. If there are problems, I can either copy it from the notepad, or just paste it into a newly composed message with a ctrl-v (paste).

If fact, I think I will do it right now!
