Because I like Xnews. I like it's filtering options. I like it's interface. This is what your posts look like to me (and any other plain texters out there): <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> <html> basic wrote: <div style="margin-left:10;"> <br>Nah! lets take down mozilla.org and everything to do with mozilla and <br>even send out a worm/virus to erase all traces of mozilla on the web. <br>That way we wouldn't offend anybody with any symbol or colour or text or <br>spelling or whatever. <p>Or we could subsitute the following for logo and get over it. <p><img SRC="cid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; BORDER=0 height= 71 width=70> <br> <p>basic You honestly expect me to read that? You expect anyone who doesn't use an HTML rendering client to read that? USEnet, except for binary groups, has always been plain text no attachments, I see no reason to change this to HTML and pictures. -- ICQ: N/A (temporarily) AIM: FlyersR1 9 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ = m
