Rootsweb has a Legacy mailing list. Rootsweb does not allow

wants to run this list when they pick such lousy list software, and they

MessageDave, I am using IE6. I chose to show the attachment marker (a paper
clip). It shows on some posts on the LUG, not all, but there never is an
attachment (on the LUG msge) although it often/sometimes shows an attachment
marker.
That is what I don't understand, why the marker shows when
I posted a response and I've no idea where it went.
8 MB is not accounted for by HTML in the post, nor by failing to trim the
previous posts from the reply.Only trying to post an article, a very high
resolution and large photo, or a genealogical file of some sort could account
for that.
MessageMy posts often wear paper clips that would lead one to expect that tehre
is an attachment.
As nearly as I can tell, the great attachment is the blip my antivirus software
adds to every e-mail certifying that it is virus free!
