hi,
you are right indeed. after all what makes microsoft sell is the
effort made to keep users in the dark about how things work. in yahoo, when
one joins a list you can choose to have the html left out.
i still wish we had an html filter as a part of nettamer. actually I still
need one in general, but to have to take a message, save it, filter it, only
to dump it seems like a lot of trouble.
i would love to see from nettamer a
"filter this message to remove html characters?
from a speech standpoint it sounds frightful!
