Apparently Chrome has the same problem. Here's what I tried to send you earlier but bounced.
Argh! George... Jonathan, The problem I have is that my yahoo email account ALWAYS switches to rich text. (Yahoo is going down the tube because they don't seem to care what their customer base wants or needs). If I forget, and that happens a lot, I get my email rejected. Yahoo has NO way to permanently select plain text. I don't do enough "business" with the gnu.org mailing lists for this to stick in my mind. Add this to the fact that NONE of the other sites or people I deal with reject rich text emails... just gnu.org. Sigh... Yes. It is a personal problem. Maybe a stick it note would help me. I still don't see the problem with rich text but it's not my decision. Thanks for your and everyone elses time. Sorry to have wasted it on such a seemingly trivial question. Regards, George... ________________________________ From: George R Goffe <grgo...@yahoo.com> To: Jonathan Wakely <jwakely....@gmail.com> Cc: "gcc@gcc.gnu.org" <gcc@gcc.gnu.org> Sent: Thursday, October 2, 2014 9:32 AM Subject: Re: Problems with the gcc-bugs mailing list.

Did you try reaching the overseers at the admin list I suggested? > What is the problem with sending rich-text emails? Old software? We don't want rich-text mail, see https://gcc.gnu.org/lists.html#policies What is the problem with plain-text email?
