That's a function of the mail CLIENT, and yes, "Plain Text" is supported by MS Outlook Express. I can't tell if John Barry's using that particular client though, as it looks like the list software strips those headers (not a bad thing necessarily). > and top-posting as well? Hah, well that's a "manners" or "style" thing. top-versus-inline posting has been the root of many a debate. I personally hate top-posting unless it's to maintain a record of dialog for internal business purposes. There are plenty of non-MS clients for all flavors of Windows that easily do "plain text" or "non-HTML" format, but the USER has to select the option. Now, I agree that the USER should take care to use an appropriate format for each list. But it's worth noting that stripping of HTML and other active content can be done at the server as well. I strip HTML and attachments for incoming lists anyhow (particularly those obnoxious web bugs inserted by some commercial lists). Unfortunately, this one had already been turned into a mess, so I wound up with the same unreadable nonsense. - Bob
