Paul,

Which application are you using to post?

If you have Mail and you have preferences set for Rich Text and to "reply to sender in the same format", it should be ok for replying to list messages as it will automatically create a plain text response. If you add "illegal" characters or styling however (or quote them) you may force it to go as Rich text which will be rejected by the list. Normally changes to format provoke a dialogue to let you know it is happening but it seems not to be consistent when quoting. So this is possibly where the problem lies. Conversely, if you send a message in Rich Text which has no styling etc., it will go as Plain Text anyway, by default. Go figure, as they say over there.

Also as they say Over There, I came across 'vigourously' in the spelling dictionary in Mail today. This is the nation which spells colour as color. I think it is nothing but perverse. Sigh. :0]

Cheers

Drew

Apologies if this gets through (which I hope it does), I seem to have
developed a problem posting to the list and getting the following error
returned. Just trying a raw post instead of a reply.
