I recently upgraded to Eudora Pro 4.3, and it now is causing all sorts of such troubles. It no longer is WYSIWYG, for example, as the fonts in an article as I am editing the article may differ wildly from the selected fonts and sizes when the articles is mailed off. The problem is with text pasted in, not stuff I write originally. I will gladly set the defaults back to "No MIME," as soon as I can find out how. Anyone know? (I see nothing in Settings to set.) I may have to go back to Eudora Pro 3.1, which I used for several years with no problems. Only thing is, the 4.3 has some nice features. It's just too clever by half, though. --Tim May -- -:-:-:-:-:-:-: Timothy C.

Fortunately, the Cypherpunks, who were actually meeting at the San Francisco Police Training Academy, were not bothered, though the four employees of MyStartUp.Com, which shares the building with FortNOCS, were not released from custody due to possession of the GDB Copyright Evasion Tool, banned under the DMCA as Copyleftist Propaganda.

Besides bizarre and wholly incorrect interpretations of physics, mathematics, history, and law, we have your puerile political thinking cluttering the list. And your threats to use your "CDR" crapola to further spam the list. And general insults such as this one above. You're a waste of skin. Time to say farewell to you for good.
