But Sherry, all your messages are coming through to me as HTML. Are you sure 
there isn’t a quirk with the list server?

It's not just HTML messages from Gmail..

To quote from the Legacy User Group guidelines:

Please only send messages in plain text format, because:

1. HTML format messages require more server space for archiving than
plain text messages.
2. HTML messages can hide viruses.
3. HTML messages will increase a message's Spam rating by Spam
blocking software.
4. It takes longer for persons with dial-up connections to download
HTML messages.
5. Some older e-mail readers display HTML messages by including
hypertext code, which makes them hard to read.
6. Some people with visual impairment may have difficulty reading
messages with colored text or tinted backgrounds.

For help with sending in messages in plain text format, please visit

Sincerely,
Sherry
