Hi Larry, I use gmail and use the gmail app on my android phone which send in rich text format. I have tried numerous tests (ask Art!) and none get through. If i want to send an email to the list using my phone i have to open up gmail in a browser which works but is a faff.
Anyone else worked out how to send plain text emails via the gmail android app? As i use my phone most of the time for emails it means this is another reason i use the metlist less and less.
