I now realize I've committed (and am still currently committing) a mailing list faux pas (or two). The good news is, I've discovered the "Plain text" setting in Hotmail's web interface. I'd rather switch over to my gmail account, but I guess I wasn't sure how much posting to a mailing list would expose my email address to spam via bots/spiders. Go easy on me... I'm brand new to mailing lists. Any references for good mailing list netiquette would be much appreciated. Also, any tips on an email client to use that will ensure proper, plain text messages and appropriate line length, etc., and will make these threads easier to read? I've been doing a lot of distro-hopping and I use several different machines (also, different OSes), so I don't really even have an email client that I use consistently right now. So pretty much, I want to do right by as many people as possible here, but it's a whole new (old) world, so I'd like some direction. And thanks for the strange welcome!...
