Actually me preference is to break the incoming mail and at relevant
points give my response. But I don't care that much as well. And in
most of the mailing lists that I am a member of, the reply-to address
is set to the address of the mailing list itself, so I usually hit
reply and go on! But, the problem is that I accidentally press the
reply button for the mailing lists that don't work like that...
Anyway...

Yeah, you're right. The problem is that I need to know for which
authors the number of the books are more than, say 3, so I can display
an appropriate message to the user. I can do this in two queries but I
though there should be a way to do it in one query.
