Hi all,

It think it has to do with the settings of the sender's and receivers email set 
up. Some people send emails in the MIME format, I think that is what Dave is 
doing and his set up is configured for that. Multipurpose Internet Mail 
Extensions (MIME) is an Internet Standard that extends the format of e-mail to 
support.

Some email readers are configured to read these messages and some digests are 
not configured to read these. Cornell email users can see these formats if 
individual emails are being looked at. If it comes in the digest then it cannot 
read as the digest has already garbled format. It happens a lot with digests. 
Sometimes I too get such messages on Neoorn list, which I receive as a digest.


So I think Dave has to look into the format he is set up with and see if he can 
change to other formats.

I am not a computer guru either, but this is what I believe happens.

To Dave (and others affected by this),

When I check the Cayuga List, I do it by going to the ABA.org Birding News and 
select New York - Cayuga (under the Eastern Region). With all other posters the 
message reads fine, however, with Dave Nutter, the message gets lost in 
computer jargon. Being very un-computer savvy myself, I have no idea what is 
causing this, but thought I would copy & paste a section of his last message. 
I'm hoping someone out there may be able to figure out what's going on. This is 
the first part of his last message (as it appeared to me):

As previously stated, whenever someone posts a reply to Dave's post, his 
original message gets printed at the bottom and is completely readable. Hope we 
can figure out this glitch, thanks.
