Ann:

I haven't noticed any big blocks of code at all, I just get words. Is there
some difference in our services? Or do I just not notice much?

Your email programm hides it, but if you would print things

 Occasionally someone sends a message with the whole web page (html code)
 loaded into the e-mail message.  If I receive the message at work on my
 old 486, my whole computer locks up on that one message.  If they just
 put the link to the page it's a lot easier--I can save the link address
 and look at the site at another time.

 This may be what Ken was referring to--because I had trouble with a
 couple of recent messages myself.  --Rosalie

That's exactly it.  I posted a message with one website hyperlink, and Ken sent me
what he received and it had hypertext for the website and every site within it at
the bottom.  Poor Ken - I will make it up to him somehow, someway :).  Also
Netscape Communicator will advise from time to time if one wants the message sent
in text and html or just text, and I've always defaulted to both, which evidently
causes the same problem.
