OK, just to be maybe a bit more precise. My company does __NOT__ say that I cannot post to email lists from work. What they did say was that all email from all employees must have a specific HTML signiture, with no variation of any kind WRT to font, color, verbage, etc. That means that the email is HTML formatted in its entirety. __I__ refuse to post such email to a list such as this one. I know that others do and I am fine with that. And I do have permission to do so. But __I__ don't like HTML mail and __I__ refuse to use it unless forced. So, I'm just going to use my home email for all my lists. This will make the Exchange people happy also as it will reduce the load on the server. Again, THIS WAS __MY__ CHOICE, brought about my __MY__ refusal to use HTML email "unnecessarily". Basically, I will now use the corporate email only for company required email, such as to vendors.
I have access to my home email from work via SSH. Granted that I doubt anybody now in the company knows this. The previous LAN people did and when I explained what I was doing, they just shrugged and didn't care. Likely because I knew that they were doing the equivalent using Microsoft Terminal Services into their home servers to play Quake <grin>. Thanks for the support, but this was MY choice, not the company's "fault". Other than forcing me to use HTML email, which I dislike. Yes, I'm a bit "anal" about such things. <shrug> -- Q: What do theoretical physicists drink beer from? A: An EIN stein. Maranatha!
