That's weird. I use Mozilla Thunderbird, and sometimes Gmail web - both

these days, and used by most email clients.

Icedove is Thunderbird without the non-free bits, basically. I use it too, and it seems to work fine with your emails. Perhaps I have a later version than Mark.

[OT] Thanks for that Henry. I must say however that (looking back over the last day in this ML and elsewhere) it's only Graeme's postings that appear to be causing problems, and the reader I'm using is from Debian "Etch" on my desktop machine which for various reason's isn't going to be upgraded in the short term.

The problems are happening when the body of the message looks like this

but not when it looks like this

Please excuse the micro-rant but I that the fewer people who feel mis-understood and under-appreciated the better, and making sure that posts are readable by everybody is a good first step :-)
