Not so. It has always allowed HTML in the past, and that's how most of us
sent in scripts to avoid hard carriage returns interrupting long lines.

That would have been me.

I hadn't noticed, but the same thing happened to an HTML message I sent in
on Feb. 14. But I have a few older messages to this list saved - several
HTML messages from Sept 2004 through January 2005. The latest HTML messages
from this list were two from Richard Shane and Robert Fairbairn on Feb 1
2005. Sometime shortly afterwards HTML was removed.

Up until Feb 1, list messages had this header:

List-Software: LetterRip Pro 4.05b10 by LetterRip Software, LLC.

>From Feb.2, they have

List-Software: LetterRip Pro 4.05b13 by LetterRip Software, LLC.

The first message sent with the new list software was Eddie Hargreaves's
"Kudos to MBU for Junk Mail Filter" sent on 01 Feb 2005 22:30:58 PST but
received by lists.letterrip.com on Wed, 2 Feb 2005 08:53:19 PST, a 10 hour
delay indicative of maintenance on the server in that time. I suspect that
stripping HTML coincides, or came just after, the new list software.


So why is HTML being stripped now, Jud? If it was inadvertent, can you
please restore it? I recall there was another problem with the list not
accepting digital sigs, which it saw as attachments, I haven't tried
recently, but I don't recall seeing any, so I don't suppose there's been any
change there.

It means we can't send scripts successfully on this list any more.
Ironically, the AppleScript-Users mailing list now does allow HTML, only
since November or so.  We can still send HTML on the Entourage news group,
but the problem there is that people reading the newsgroup on Google in a
web browser get all the HTML non-ASCII characters mangled, which is worse.
