Reiterating two oft-repeated points that have failed to connect with some of you...
1. PLEASE, oh please snip the post you are responding to unless you need to address specific points within that e-mail. Long strings of the past text that are just there because you're too lazy to hit delete make it REALLY hard for digest readers to wade through our posts. 2. Unless you are an AOL or MSN user, you MUST post plain text. Again, when digest users get our digests (12-20 collected posts), the stuff in HTML or MIME either looks like garbage or has tons of extra characters. AOL and MSN users can't switch off HTML, as far as I know. But the rest of you - especially you Yahoo folks - can. For now, I won't release non-plain text posts to the list until they are properly formatted, at least until folks get a clue here. (Our list server holds non-plain-text posts because they can also transmit viruses, which plain text can't.) Side note: if you are responding to an AOL or MSN post, your response may go out in HTML or MIME. But you're smart people - you can figure out how to make it plain text.
