Ben. Update, I was too fast to say it was fine, now ALL my mail is plain text, some things (like flyers from some companies) I want in HTML, it is just this group that has suddenly become HTML that I want back as plain text, is there any way of telling Google groups you only want plain text?? I don't want to spend half my time changing views.

Re: List view
I just said try another web browser this way they could rule it out being the browser... Then it would be the computer an the settings... I use to have this kind of trouble using Internet Explorer and that's when I found FireFox corrected the prob... My daughter was having some trouble (like they are having) with FireFox and now she uses SeaMonkey and her distorted stuff stopped... She is using Windows ME and I heard SeaMonkey was designed for those old OS's!!! It's very easy to download these other web browsers and try them, then it is to spend all day trying to fix something that you have no idea about!!! -Original Message- From: dorayme dora...@optusnet.com.au Sent: Nov 17, 2009 5:55 AM To: G-list at Google Google g3-5-list@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: List view Topic: List view ben64sm...@googlemail.com ben64sm...@googlemail.com Nov 16 10:44AM -0800 Recently the digest has started to arrive in HTML rather than plain text and it is HORRIBLE.

Re: List view
I guess I read it wrong??? I remember a long time ago I had to stop using Internet Explorer because my email was all screwed up and couldn't even open it because the subject line was running into the name of the person who sent me the email and this ended up being my web browser... -Original Message- From: Bob Whiton m...@rswhiton.com Sent: Nov 17, 2009 10:29 AM To: g3-5-list@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: List view At 9:37 AM -0500 11/17/09, Richard Gerome wrote: I just said try another web browser this way they could rule it out being the browser...
