I asked her and she's using a web browser. I suggested she try Outlook 
or something like that b'cuz she says sometimes she's frustrated with 
her email so a real email program would be better but I don't know if 
she'll do that. Anyway thank you every body for the ideas I guess if she 
doesn't want to change the subject line by herself we'll just have to 
live with her msgs not being with every body else's. Annoying but not 
the end of the world!
